I joined the site a long time ago, but never experienced Geocaching. I’m an old fashion bushwhacker. I use a map and compass.
My reason for this post is, there’s a Geocaching Box off an old logging road, (Old Waterville Valley Road, NH). It’s in the Foss Burbank Cemetery, a very old and sacred place. It dates back to the late 1800’s. The cemetery’s entrance is marked with three head stone belonging to babies, and the other 12 or so people there, died in their 20’s. I saw the box a few times….it’s waterlogged. I emptied out all the water, but what I’m really asking all of you; can you please move this Geocaching Box to a different location? I did a lot of research on this cemetery, and these poor people from England had it very hard. (As you can see by nobody living past the age of their 20’s) This is very sacred ground, IMO. The box is very easy to spot. The cemetery is small, and the box is a Tupperware, blue covered box, behind a tree on the south side of the cemetery.
I’m just asking you from one hiker, to another hiker…please leave this ground pure.
Thank You,
Joey
