Will I need GSAK

[sp1tf1re]

So I really like the idea of doing cemetery cache's. It appears that there isn't an attribute for cemetery within the PQ lists. Is there something other than GSAK that would help me narrow down the results for this? Or is this just a bit too morbid of a request. I did a cemetery cache while up in Oregon and loved the history that it provided as well as really liking the different headstones.

I like the idea of that - am a bit of a cemetery nut myself!

 

Don't know if it's possible, but I've just installed GSAK myself and am keen to see if it's possible

dont think there is any useful attribute for a cemetery. You can do a keyword search on the advanced search in geocaching but then again, thats only going to help you find ones that actually have the word cemetery in them. Would say at least 1/3 of them do not have that word. Cant see GSAK helping you here.

This isn't a bad argument for tags.

OK, sounds like its time to make a request for a cemetery attribute for PQs at the feedback section.

I like them too. I added a vote to your entry in Feedback.

some caches are multis or mysteries that are in cemeteries without you knowing you will be in one til you solve the puzzle...thus, you will never know them all.

Well if its a multi or mystery that results in a cemetery find I will be pleasantly surprised by the results. I was looking at the more traditional type cache's for this search.

Yes, I think GSAK would be a good way to filter for cemetery caches.

Dump a query or queries into GSAK and do a search for the word cemetery.

 

User flag those results, then try some other term(s); "respect" comes up often on cemetery caches. In some parts of the country "spirit quest" in the title. Also, once you find a few, hunt for bookmarks on those pages. Some person may already have a bookmark for cemetery caches.

I hate cemetery caches, and use GSAK to filter them, so I can add them to my ignore list.

I use Name Search for: cemet (catches both cemetery and cemetary), tomb, grave and peace. That seems to get most of them. Should also work for adding them to your list.

You can also try searching for "Restin'" or "Resting" or even "Bone Yard", not just cemetery. Nearly all of our cemetery caches here in Ontario have "Restin'" in their title. We even have one cacher who has created a public bookmark list of them which as of today now contains 349 caches.

If you get GSAK you can do a full text search and it will find all caches that have the input text. So dump a PQ into it. Click Search. In the full text search box type cemetery and click go. There they are.

 

As I always say the answer to all questions about cache data is GSAK
