Welcome to the Farewell to Finder’s Fest geo-art, brought to you by the Forest Minions! This series celebrates weird and unusual things throughout the Sunshine State. Please do not go to the posted locations. Rather, solve the challenging quiz found at the bottom of each page, for the final location. For the letterbox caches, please leave the stamp in the cache. They are not trade items. For the discerning traveler, we’ve included the GPS coordinates for these bizarre locations, when we were able to establish them.
Crashed Airplanes – Location 28.1795, -81.8175
These planes would have us think Florida pilots can’t fly; actually these airplanes are attention getters. In Polk City a cargo plane is stuck nose first in a cow pasture beside Interstate-four advertising the Fantasy of Flight museum. In Daytona a zebra-striped plane appears to have crashed into a Safari-themed miniature golf course and on Highway 1 in Rose Bay a yellow plane called “Nosy Rosy” has landed on top of a seafood restaurant.
Here is the super duper, way challenging, really hard trivia question, which, if solved properly, will lead you to the final coordinates:
