Geocache Description:


This cache was originally placed for the fifth annual Greater Omaha Grave Hop, an event that takes place in the Omaha area. The caches are located in and around cemeteries. Please be respectful and search for the caches between dawn and dusk.

Please note that this is a field-puzzle multi cache; you will need to visit posted coordinates to figure out the coordinates to the final stage.

Bohemian Cemetery offers three options for interment: traditional burials, cremation with remains stored in a columbarium niche, and the scattering of cremated remains in the scattering garden. Families can opt to have their departed’s name engraved on this somewhat unusual pillar. Find the necessary information on the pillar, plug in the digits, and then you’ll probably hop back in the car to head to the second (and final) stage, which is located at:

N41 14. ABC  W095 59.ADD

Start at the side of the column listing the person with the initials R.R. at the top.

A = What’s the second digit of the day that F.W. was born?

Now move clockwise (to your left) to the next side. This is where you’ll find B.

B = What’s the last digit in the year B.J. died?

Move clockwise (to your left) again. You’ll find C here.

C = What’s the last digit in the year W.B. was born?

Again, to your left. You’ll find D on the final side of the pillar.

D = What’s the last digit in the year R.P. died?
