The Farnsworth Public Library was completed in 1903 by architect Henry Foeller. Oconto lumberman George Farnsworth gifted $15,000 to its building, constructed in the Neoclassical Revival style. On an expansion completed in 1993 you'll find a beautiful and colorful mural.
This is a fun and easy field-solve puzzle type of geocache. The mural was created by my friend Mike Werner, a retired Oconto teacher. Use the mural to solve the coordinates for the final location of the geocache. It is a cute micro that fits the mural theme. Bring your own pencil to sign the log. It is located at N44 53.ABC W087 52.DEF
