“INDIANA SPIRIT QUEST”
The Indiana Spirit Quest series of
geocaches will take you to a number of historic cemeteries
built by Hoosier Pioneers. In just over a year and a half, the
quest has grown to over three hundred sixty caches hidden in
thirty-six Indiana counties, and two Ohio counties, and the hiders
have grown to nineteen cacher teams, most of which of which are
comprised of Dogs and their Humans. Over
725 cacher teams have logged over 8,600 finds. One cache machine
found 102 ISQ caches in a single day (daylight hours
only).
