Geocache Description:


SQ represents Spirit Quest, typically a cache in a cemetery.  Please be very respectful of this historic place.  Honor dawn to dusk hours here with NO night caching.  

Randolph is by far the oldest cemetery I've found in Hillsdale county.  Wandering around this tiny but incredible place I've seen dates on stones that defy my imagination.  Rachel Randolph, the very first resident here was born in 1750, 273 years ago, 16 years before the signing of the Declaration of Independence.  She lived to the ripe old age of 90.  She was born before the USA existed!

I've had another cache here, but decided it was time to refresh this with a new one.  If you found the old one, this is very near where it was and the walk will take you past Rachel's stone.  Note the years represented here!

Typical cache hidden between 2 trees in a stump.  Please recover it with the bark.
