Breathless by the Wabash Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

kidCraZy: I've decided that, although a beautiful park, it is too far out of the way of my usual travels to adequately maintain this one, so I'm archiving it. Maybe someday I'll start another cache here. :(

Geocache Description:

A rectangular tupperware container with a white lid, the theme of this cache is "items from other caches". Think of it as a haven for travelers. Click on the 'User's Web Page' link above to access the France Park webpage.

This cache is hidden in a beautiful sleeping giant of Northern Indiana. This park has so many great places I still haven't found them all, even with the help of the website. Be sure you make time to take in all the great views and good hiking. I personally recommend (N40'45.075" W86'27.280") and (N40'45.036 W86'27.274"). Please follow all park rules, especially not climbing on certain rocks. My first choice for a hiding place violated this one so I had to move it.

Hiking starts out easy, but gets more difficult as it turns stony. Please watch your footing at all times. Sorry if my final coordinates are off; I was having trouble getting a definite fix.

  • Light blue finger puppet (#4 of 5) --- my personal trademark
