DO NOT GO TO THE POSTED COORDINATES.
This cache is part of the Abe’s Hat GeoArt, placed to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Geocaching with Abe weekend of events held annually at Lincoln State Park. These caches were placed by Dr. Who and K-9, El Pollo Loco Gang, Payneboys, and Wright04. Just answer the simple true/false question at the bottom of each cache page to reveal the actual coordinates.
Although Abraham Lincoln may have been born in Kentucky and Illinois may claim to be the “Land of Lincoln,” it was the rolling hills of Southern Indiana about which Abe would one day say, “Here I grew up.”
When designing this GeoArt, several iconic Abe-related images were considered, including a log cabin or a beard. Ultimately, we settled on Abe’s signature top hat.
These caches will take you on a back roads tour of the farm lands of rural Spencer and Warrick counties. They are all intended to be easy finds in typical locations. Most containers are preforms that can be accessed easily from the side of the road. Generous hints have been provided.
