The coordinates listed are not for the cache. Rather they are the coordinates for the entrance to the cemetary. The final cache is very large and will definitely be worth the hunt. We will keep it well stocked. To uncover the final cache you will need to collect information from a variety of clues throughout the cemetary.
You will need to find each of five separate locations and note their specific information before you can put the all the clues together to decipher the final coordinates. The cache isn’t in any of the obvious hiding spots around the cemetery so unless you want to decrypt the spoiler info and go straight to it, don’t bother looking.
All of the coordinates, of course, can be entered manually. As a handy alternative you can download this handy .loc file. The .loc file has the coordinates for each of the clues that you will need to uncover.
The clues:

Okay, now that you have all of the clues solved. Fill in the letters in the final coordinates with the actual numbers from the clues.

Well, now you’ve got the coordinates for the final cache. Go get it! Have fun and be safe!
In the cemetary, keep fido on a leash. Once you've got the final coordinates, let him run.
This is a fun cache for kids of any age.
The whole thing should take about 20-25 minutes from the moment you arrive.
The view from the top of this hill is breathtaking.
The cemetary closes its gates at 4:00 p.m. but the caretaker does not mind walkers after that.
That's just creepy. Plus, it looks kinda bad to be stalking in a cemetary at night.
Parking is available off to the side of the road.
