! The Exciting
Cache Series!
"COLORADO SPIRIT
QUEST"
REMEMBER:
If
you are APPREHENSIVE about cemeteries – AVOID
this series.
The
Colorado Spirit Quest is a series of Caches placed by many
individuals, near cemeteries and historic sites in hopes of paying
respect to the many pioneer ancestors that have
'walked' before us.
If you are
interested in being a part of this project, contact may be made by
sending an e-mail to the owner of "Colorado Spirit Quest #1
– Mountain
Passage". Use the 'Send Message" link at the
center of the page of their profile.
There are hundreds of
cemeteries in the rural and mountain communities across Colorado.
This series will introduce you to many of them.
The cache
pages will provide a virtual history tour of the cemeteries and
tombstones.
COLORADO
SPIRIT QUEST is not affiliated with any other 'Spirit
Quest' group. Special thanks and credit are given to
SixDogTeam who started the Indiana Spirit Quest in 2004. The idea
has rapidly spread into many states.
The CSQ
endeavor is an enormous and relentless task and will only flourish
if there is a multitude of volunteer cachers willing to place these
caches.
After
locating the cache container, take some time to reflect back on the
lives of those pioneers and the effort it took to make Colorado
such a great state.
Each person that places a CSQ cache is responsible for its
maintenance.
