Covered Bridge
This is the Everett Road covered bridge in the CVNP (from about 2 years ago). It was built in the 1870s to help farmers get their goods to market via the Ohio and Erie Canal. This is a replica of the original bridge, which was ripped from it's footings by a flood of Furnace Creek in 1975. The new bridge was constructed using the truss design of the original.

(Apologies if I've posted this before. It seemed to fit the developing theme.)

No need to apologize, Chuck...even if you posted it before (I don't recall if you did or not), it's well worth seeing again. Beautiful image...love the foreground lead in! :smile:

Interesting take on a covered bridge. It balances quite well with the rocky foreground.
