The Emmet County Transportation Quest Geo-trail will take participants on a tour to discover the interesting historic transportation places in the county. Each cache will provide a specific answer to a question on the passport. Information and the passport can be downloaded from the Emmet County web site http://www.emmetcounty.org/geocache/
Once 25 of the caches in this tour have been completed, the passport can be taken to Emmet County Building, Suite 178 or mailed to Beth Eckerle, Emmet County Building, Suite 178, 200 Division St., Petoskey, MI 49770 to receive a collectable souvenir coin for this series.

Built by the Chicago and West Michigan Railroad in 1892 to accommodate the large influx of summer resorters, this depot later served as the Pere Marquette Railroad’s main station. It became the Little Traverse History Museum in the 1960s, and is filled with artifacts such as the passenger pigeon display, the area's connection to Ernest Hemingway, faces and places that shaped Emmet County, and a growing research facility with resource material that has been collected over the years.
