!! 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 35mm film canister.  You will not need to enter the cemetery to find the cache.

This cemetery contains about 300 headstones. The day I was there it was very quiet with nobody around.

We are from Washington state and here for a wedding in Sterling. We stayed at Jumbo Reservoir which was the farthest east we'd traveled in Colorado (until now!). This was also our first time caching in Nebraska. Enjoyed the history and the thunderstorms (we don't have lightning/thunder as ferocious as you do here)! We found this cache with my cousin Lynn, and her BF, Billy (his first time caching). Thanks for the effort in placing this cache! This one was kind of mucky.

Thanks for another great Colorado Spirit Quest! We love these!! Glad it was too cold for all the spider nests this one entailed!! Found the lid and replaced as best as we could... Log is in great shape, but this could use a new container before too long!

Easy find with my daughters. Nice locale, don't know if the cache was suppose to have a lid because it did not but the log was clean and dry
