! 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.

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.

I gave some friends a ride to University Hospital today. While they were at the appointment I walked over to hunt for this one. Man was it cold without gloves and only a light jacket. I utilized the hint to speed the search, but by the time I retrieved the container my fingers were almost too numb to get it open. I signed “RM” to save space. The log is almost full. I was barely able to get it closed and tucked back. I’m always glad to get a cemetery cache and especially a CSQ cache. I think I have about 70 of those now. Thanks for placing this one.

Went on trip to get cache for the day and to make pebbles happy. It was an interesting find, but does take some looking around. Don't forget your geo-senses. Signed log as Pebbles and NTM. Thanks for the cache.

Heading east on Colfax today. This is our first cache of the day. Nice morning to be out. So happy to make this find. Nice hide, blends in well. Great way to start our day. Beautiful cemetery. Thanks for bringing us here. SL

Fast find. Today I’m out getting counties and DeLorme pages. This cache is also helping me raise today's overall total to 26, the number of caches necessary to turn a given square in the 366 grid a second shade darker. The first such change occurs at 11 caches, and I've already done that for the entire grid. 26 caches is a whole 'nuther ballgame. Wish me luck! And thanks for the cache!

I loved th8s tough one. Lid is a little tough to open. Picking up caches around Childrens Hospital tonight. This one was in great shape! Found on a miserable, snowy, March evening. But a great day for caching! Tftc!

Dropped a family member off at DIA this morning, so thought we'd grab a few caches on the way home. Good hide, but the hint helped us make the find. Signed log and replaced container as found. Thanks for the cache.

EPIC hide! Almost gave up.. Risked spider bites, and scored!! Just a lil’ guy, so I left +Vibes+
New log needed soon :)
It was really cool to see, and learn some Colorado history that I wasn't previously aware of!
TFTC!!!
