How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:


All stages are hidden within State Forest guidelines. There is no container at the cemetery, but you will need to visit to get information for the final stages. Please be respectful and don't search for the answers if there are mourners or a graveside service at the cemetery. Please use common sense. This is a tree-climbing cache, so if you don't trust your own tree-climbing skills, bring someone who is agile enough to climb.

This cache is all about red herrings. You will use numbers from gravestones to solve for seven locations, and there are containers hidden at each of those locations, but only one of them will give you the information to the final. You will only need to get information from above-ground gravestones, so this should be winter friendly.
