!! Exciting New Cache Series!!

 

“COLORADO SPIRIT QUEST”

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.

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.  It cannot be accomplished by just one or two people.  This project 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.

If you are interested in joining the “Walking Through History Clan” contact may be made by sending an e-mail to the owner of “Colorado Spirit Quest #1 – Mo untain Passage”.  Use the ‘Send Message” link at the center of the page of their profile.

Each person that places a CSQ cache is responsible for its maintenance.

REMEMBER:

If you are APPREHENSIVE about cemeteries – AVOID this series.

The cache container is a camoed match container.  About the only placement that would work is in the cemetery but it has been placed to one side to avoid the plots.

This cemetery contains about 150 headstones and appears to have been used extensively in the years before 1900.

One of 10 cases found on a wonderful 450 mile 10 hour drive to Kansas to find one of the oldest caches in geocaching. Picked up some caches, counties and states along the way.

This one took a few minutes before we realized we were on the wrong side of the fence. TFTF

We cache as a family as we travel. We live in MD yet have found caches in 48 states, DC, and four Canadian provinces. Thanks for hiding this cache for us to find!

We are caching counties, parks, and states this month as we quest for Hidden Creatures souvenirs!

TFTC thanks for the geocache! I love traveling and caching with my family!

On our trip across the USA we found some great GADGET caches (FUN!), some powertrail caches, a lot of virtuals and earthcaches, and some REGULAR SIZE caches to trade toys. It has been a great vacation!
