Starkey 1939 Covered Bridge
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
Early bridges were often made of wood, especially where it was a plentiful resource. Wooden bridges tended to deteriorate rapidly from exposure to the elements, having a useful lifespan of only nine years. Covering them protected their structural members, thus extending their life to 80 years or more.
This is a great example of our historic covered bridges. It should be an easy find unless there is more than a couple of feet of snow.
