In September 1887, the town of Whatcom purchased a ten acre plot
for the founding of a burial ground for its residents, which later
became known as Ten Mile Cemetery. Today, Ten Mile is a
well-maintained cemetery with lush green lawns and carefully
trimmed shrubbery. The oldest headstones can be seen on the eastern
edge of the property.
The cache is a small magnetic keyholder. Please park with care,
be respectful, and cache in, trash out. There is an onsite cemetery
manager on duty Mondays from 9 a.m. to noon -- please use extra
care in retrieving and replacing the cache during those hours. The
cemetery is closed from sunset to sunrise.
 If you are a geocacher in
