Lonely grave caches

Post by Bundyrumandcoke » 19 July 09 12:41 am

Is anyone aware of a GCA cache involving singular graves hidden away in the scrub? It would be a locationless cache that I am thinking about, honouring typically pioneering persons who are buried in far flung places out in the bush, that are rarely visited, or often passed by in our haste to get from somewhere to somewhere else.

I am interested in such sites, and if there isnt such a cache on GCA, I will set one up, but if there is, then I wont duplicate it, but instead add some finds to the existing cache.

Cheers
Bundy

The only ones I have seen are "Graves of the Famous GA0809" and "Unique Headstones GA0910" Neither of which are a long the lines of which you are describing.

That sounds an interesting, and potentially historically valuable project. Our Pionering ancestors deserve to have their last resting places recorded. :)

There's a GC cache in Victoria that's a multi, with WP1 at such a grave. Such a historic site, that people would never find without geocaching. It's "The Shepherd's Daughter, http://coord.info/GC175JE
