Geocache Description:

The Root of All Evil cache will take you to St. Francis Cemetery,a little rural cemetery founded in 1848. The cemetery is located on a hill that is barely visible from the road. You can park in the end of the driveway and walk back in, or drive up the short road to the cemetery.

Sometimes when you are just walking along that 'paved' path in life,evil lurks just beyond in the bushes......just waiting.....waiting for you to step off that path....

This cache is a two part multi cache. The first set of coordinates (on a laminated business card) will take you to a spot where you will find the second set of coordinates. Please leave them as you have found them as the other cachers will need them too!

Be careful when searching for the second part of the cache....evil lurks in places where you least expect it!! The cache box is full of goodies that some people might view as "EVIL". Try to stick to the theme if possible when trading. Always trade for an item of equal value.

Happy Trails!

CACHE UPDATE: 11/05/2005 The cemetery association has repaired the road making the cemetery accessable by vehicle. (It wasn't that long of a walk anyways!!!) They used that big old ugly oil tank that had been sitting there all summer long for a culvert. Also, a new posted sign has been erected in the area of the cache site. Depending on your approach, it may appear that you are trespassing. I spoke with the landowners AGAIN on 11/5/2005 to reaffirm that the cache is still there and that we may be going a little ways (CLUE HERE!!!) beyond that posted sign. They said that this is not a problem.

Do be careful though, there is old barbed wire by the cache area...as well as many pricker bushes. I know, but what did you expect??? It's supposed to be the Root of All Evil!!!

Congratulations to "Team Position Police" for a FTF!
