Lincoln State Park

(Entrance fee applies.)

Spring Shelter (Troy Road Picnic Area)

Saturday, November 7, 2009

11am – 2pm (CST)

Come to Lincoln State Park for a Saturday of searching. Find Abe’s family and friends along the hills and hollers of Lincoln State Park and Lincoln’s surrounding Little Pigeon Creek neighborhood. You’ll see the Lincoln Boyhood Memorial, Buffalo Run, the Colonel Jones Home, and more!

Be prepared to drive, hike, and maybe even wade to find out about Abe’s past! You’ll search for a variety of Geocaches—some permanent, some hidden just for this event, and some unique “caches” that will even talk and interact with you! And if you’ve never Geocached before or are just beginning, we’ll have a special beginner’s route where you can get help from some Geocaching veterans.

So don’t pass up this opportunity to explore Abe Lincoln’s past like few others ever have. You’ll even get the chance to do things Abe might have done, like throw a tomahawk or use a Schnitzelbank! Prizes will be awarded for all sorts of reasons…

Geocaching with Abe weekend at Lincoln State Park will be filled with great Geocaching events. Review the notes in the cache logs below for links to the weekend’s entire slate of events!

And if camping in beautiful Southern Indiana in November and 5 awesome Geocaching events aren’t enough to keep you busy, consider this: there are OVER 600 Geocaches within a 25-mile radius of Lincoln State Park. So come on down and join us for a fun-filled weekend of Geocaching!



See ya soon!

I had a blast for the weekend.
Thanks to Torry he cooked a couple of amazing meals. Something you would not have expected at a camp out.

Add couple of Double Buffalo Burger's and we ate like kings in the village.

Cache On!
