The Putnam County Cache Quest
The Cache
Route 2 is one of the main roads into the western half of Putnam
county. Putnam has an interesting fact that one can not drive from
west to east without leaving the county. There are no bridges
across the Illinois river inside of Putnam County. Welcome from the
West.
The Quest
The Putnam County Cache Quest is a chance for cachers to visit the
smallest of all Illinois counties, Putnam. Enjoy touring the small
towns and country side of this hidden county. With only two caches
in the entire county, the county challenge can be very difficult.
Why not bring out important points in a nice little area?
