Geocache Description:

All the stages of this cache are in the Underhill Cemetery on Park Street. You will have to get clues from the headstones and monuments to find the cache.

Please respect the cemetery. Park at the above coordinates – there is no need to drive into the cemetery.

This is a small cache. The cache was one of the prizes from The First Geovague Road Rally. Thanks Dewey. There is a logbook and a small pencil. The initial contents include a few small trade items and a couple of coins as well as one of our FTF Apples.

Congratulations to DJ and CAL for getting FTF honors.
