Long Description:
When the Mt. Crest Abbey opened this cemetery and mausoleum in 1914, they left a time capsule in one of the niches. All that is known is what is said on the inscription, that it "contains historical material", and is not to be opened until 2914, 1,000 years after placement.

Note: The coordinates given are for the main entrance to the mausoleum. Go inside, turn left at the large circular staircase, and follow the hall all the way past the glass doors into the original section. The capsule is on the left of the main hallway, immediately before the final side corridor.
Visit Instructions:
You must provide a photo to be able to log a waymark. The picture should include yourself, or a partner, with your GPS next to the time capsule itself.
