Other Information

The barn was built in 1885 by landowner Rudolf

H. Springer and thus is known as the Springer

Barn.

Coordinate are approx. The site is the only location in the vicinity of Mile marker 7 that has the features noted in the photograph and could support the barn.

Marcia Fasy reported that a month after the award winning photograph of the barn, that this art print is based on, a light snow collapsed it, and it was lost forever.

Was initially incorrectly assigned the ID of MPB 37-09-01.
