Geocache Description:

New location as of 19/Jan/2025

Take a walking tour of Haunted Fairhaven...


The posted coordinates will take you to the location of a streetcorner viewing area for the "Unclaimed Dead".

During the 1890's and 1900's, thousands of transients came to help build the "New City of Fairhaven". Many died of exposure, accident, or suicide. When such men could not be identified, they were loaded onto a wagon and put on display in hopes that someone might recognize them.

Locate the stone marker at the posted coordinates which pays tribute to these unclaimed souls. The satellite reception is consistently poor here, so the hint is quite specific.

The third line of the marker is a year, ABCD. The cache is a short walk away at:

N 48° 43.(A+C)(B-D)(C+D) W° 122 30.(B-5)(B-6)(B-4)
