Geocache Description:

The overall difficulty: 3, due primarily to getting to the small town where the cache is located -- it's not really close to any big city.

Terrain rating:
1, streets lead to within 50 yards of the site, and can be walked to a bird's eye view of a former mining town.

The cache is a small, off-white "tupperware" container with the hello message, UTM coordinates, log book, pencil and disposable razor (it was kind of an impromptu thing and I snatched what I had). I placed the stash in a fold of a dirt mount that lies between an open field and cemetary -- easy to get to with a simple walk around the mound. Perhaps the following attempt at limerick could be provided? I'm thinking of generating limericks for other stashes I have in mind as kind of a "signature."

When coal was king in this country
and Molly Maguires were lively
near a place of the dead
not far from a shed
awaits a cache colored ivory.
