12 Saint Graves Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

apa: I have to announce, that this cache does not exist anymore. Unfortunately I can not visit Kyrgyzstan to recreate it, my friends there are not interested about geocaching any more.
The last seekers described, that cache location is now very dirty, full of litter. When we did hide this cache, it was a beautiful coast of lake Issyk-Kul. We also had a picknick here...

Geocache Description:

The cache is a 0,5 liter glass bank (pic 3), it is located on the south coast of lake Issyk-Kul (pic 4), the altitude is 1610m, not difficult to drive and walk on nearby areas.

During the official visit to Kyrgyzstan we had some time for traveling to east - for visiting a lake, called "Pearl of Central Asia". When we choosed a place for picnic, we noticed a small mosque up in the hills (pic 1). My companions knew, that here locates 12 graves (pic 2)of unknown muslim saints an this place is popular in community of Kyrgyzs muslims. NB! if You are planning to visit this place, please respect the rules and traditions of local people, if needed just ask for help from the other visitors.

Small note on cache maintenance: My friends Mamed & Smail both Lives in Kyrgyzstan and they regularily visit the area of Issyk-Kul as mountain-lovers. We hid this cache together, and Smail agreed to be responsible for it.
