!! 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 – Mountain 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.

Pretty quick find and then while signing I almost lost track of where the "hanger" for the cache was. Whew, managed to spot it after a minute. TFTC!

What a day! 27 caches covering the following types - Traditional, Multi, Mystery, Earth, Virtual, Lab, Event, CITO, Wherigo, and Letterbox. New record for me. It was a very full day and it was a lot of fun but I'm relieved it's done too!

I had targeted several entries into this series but had to cut back on doing all of them because of time constraints. Going to Mingo and back from Denver in a day is no small feat! This was a very nice cemetery that is a blink and you miss it as you drive by. But it is serene and well maintained and worth stopping at. I wish I had more time to walk around, but I was glad to be brought here in the first place.

The cache container is breaking though and the log was soggy. I replaced both the log and baggie but didn't have a new container. Hopefully it will continue to hold up and remain dry for the next finder.

Thanks for the hide Ivy Dog Parents

Hello from the west coast! Jimlips and I are visiting from northern California. Our goals are to get both Tarryall, and Mingo, among other fine caches. My muggle brother joined us today, and he made most of the finds...without a GPSr! The log was soggy, we stamped our blob. TNLNSL ~ Thanks

Headed to Mingo today from CO Springs with NightKnight. This was the whole goal of our trip from the Sacramento area. Grabbed this one while in the area, too. Thanks for the hide!
