Geocache Description:

P&G to bring you to see one of Ashtabula County's "Novelty" covered bridges.

Part of a mini series to show you some "novelty" or unregistered covered bridges in Ashtabula County. All of Ashtabula County's registered covered bridges have a geocache on them thanks to Jackolopejim, so make sure that you visit all 18 registered covered bridges in the county.

Ashtabula County has just completed their covered bridge festival, held the second weekend in October every year. Hundreds of people come to tour Ashtabula County's 18 registered covered bridges, which include both the longest and the shortest covered bridge in the country.

I thought it would be nice to have a series to visit some of Ashtabula County's non-registered covered bridges (also known as "novelties"). Most of these covered bridges are private, but owners typically do not mind anyone taking pictures of them. Cache placement is such that there is no trespassing on private property, and the hides are typically P&Gs, so take the time to enjoy the views offered and the scenery on these back roads of Ashtabula County. Please respect the privacy of the owner's of the covered bridges, but if you are a "bridger", well, you do your thing...

Manner's Tree Farm Covered Bridge is listed in Ohio's registry of covered bridges as 35-04-d (the letter on the end meaning it is not a registered bridge). The bridge was erected in 1982, is approximately 16' long, and spans a ditch at its location.

Congrats steve&missy for FTF!
