Geocache Description:

This cache is located on the Quinnesec United Methodist Church (QUMC) five-acre property (with permission).

Quinnesec is a Native American name meaning "Smoking Waters." QUMC was organized in February of 1880. The church building is the oldest in Dickinson and Iron Counties and was moved to its current location in 1976. It was registered with the Michigan State Register of Historic Sites in 1977. Originally located on US2, the congregation had to park on the other side of the highway and walk across for worship. The location became dangerous when the highway was expanded to 5 lanes and the speed limit changed to 55 mph.

Be sure to visit the outdoor chapel, located at N 45° 47.990 W 087° 59.785.

Don't forget a TICK check after your visit!
