Geocache Description:

Lincoln's Land

Note: You must physically visit the posted location in order to log this cache as 'found'. If you find the solution via internet please enter a 'note' log only.

There are so few virtual caches in Iowa that I thought it only right to create this one on this date... July 4, 2002.

This virtual cache is a snippet of history that I'd bet very few people know of. It involves Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, and documents a small part of his life long before he became president.

Finding this 'drive-up' cache will take you a few miles off the highway on gravel roads. I've passed the markers on the highway (US 63) many times wondering what was out here. When you locate this cache make a note of the 16th word on the sign (it's a 4-letter word, not a number). Please log your find and put your cursor on the Groundspeak logo and CTRL-Click to send me an e-mail including the keyword to confirm your find. Please do not post the keyword in your log.

You are REQUIRED to physically visit the cache and e-mail the password to me or your 'found it' log will be deleted.
