Geocache Description:


Anyone who has ever cached with me knows that cemeteries are my favorite. I love the history, the beautiful markers, and the traditions around these sacred places.

In 1959, the Orofino, ID Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 3296 erected this monument in memory of all veterans that had passed. This small stone holds a lot of meaning for the daughter of a lifetime member of that organization who misses her dad now that he too has moved on.

The geocache is a small lock-box with the log, a small pencil, and started with some small swag. You may be able to slip a small trackable or two in here if they are flat. 

And here's the "you know the drill" statement: This being a cemetery cache, using the utmost respect when entering and searching is imperative. If a funeral service is being held in the cemetery, DO NOT ENTER. This cemetery has a curfew from dusk to dawn so hold true to those rules and no night caching. It should be fairly obvious where the cache is hidden, so please don't destroy property or dig anything up looking for it.
