Louviers: A Company Town Wherigo Cache

This cache has been archived.

irid3sc3nt: I am really sorry to see this go. If you are as upset about this as me, I understand. The director of the Douglas County Public Libraries has deigned that no geocaches should be in any of the branches. It really sucks and I'm really sad.
I am planning on recreating this Wherigo as an Adventure Lab, but I am unsure if there will be a bonus cache at the end.
Thank you, friends, for visiting!
