The New Mexico Department of Transportation has preserved the original bridge that spans the gorge above Percha Creek. It is on the National Register of Historic places. It was built in 1927 and allowed HWY 152 to stretch over this formerly impassable location. Percha Creek Bridge is the oldest of the five steel deck truss bridges left in NM. Take the time to cross the bridge on foot to view the sights below and to imagine what the construction of this Warren deck truss bridge was like for the men who built it. The new bridge was constucted in 1994 due to the decline in safety of the old bridge.
The cache is in a safe location away from any drops into Percha Creek. Take care in your search, as this is the wild desert Southwest. Make sure to take a creative picture on the old bridge and post if you can. ENJOY!
Congratulations KTMride and Dobielady for FTF!
