Located about 9 miles south of Brewster in at the south end of the Brewster Bridge (that crosses the Columbia River) turn right (West) on the paved county road about 2.5 miles to a T in the road, go straight ahead on the Central Ferry Road (Also a big red arrow pointing to the Offices of Crane and Crane Orchards). Go about .3 miles to Central Ferry Canyon Road and turn to the left (South). To the right is the Crane and Crane Warehouse and Office. After about 1.1 miles you enter the Wells Wildlife Area, a project of Douglas County PUD. You come to a cattle guard and continue straight ahead (South) across the guard and go another .8 miles on a steep climb. The Packwood Cemetery road is to the left (East) and you go about .2 miles to the fenced cemetery.

Guessing the cemetery is about 7 acres in size, most of the graves are near the gate. The cemetery can be reached coming from the south (Mansfield) but the road is not as good.

There is some care to the cemetery in that there is a flag pole and a large apple bin used for garbage. There is no water but since the cemetery does have some pine trees in and around, there is wildlife. Any misspelling and wrong dates, please let me know. Thanks. *

I rewalked this cemetery on Oct 01, 2006. This includes all existing and legible stone and marker readings up to that time.
