Geocache Description:

Another Roadside Attraction Geotrail

 

South Carolina - Campbell's Covered Bridge

 


There is nothing better than a good road trip: driving down the open road, eating at tiny roadside diners, going 150 miles out of the way to take a selfie in front of … the Peachoid water tower! Oh Say, can you see … me with the world’s largest frying pan?

This geotrail honors those unique, odd, bizarre, fun, historic, campy, weird, and just downright interesting roadside attractions in North and South Carolina. The caches aren’t meant to be hard, it is a power-trail after all. None of the caches are hidden at the posted locations - but answer the question correctly and you will have a working set of coordinates. All of the hides are preform bottles.

South Carolina's last remaining covered bridge is an excellent example of a Howe truss bridge. Campbell’s Covered Bridge was built in 1909. Named for Lafayette Campbell, the owner of a nearby gristmill who allowed the bridge to be built on his property. At the time of construction, covered bridges were popular in the mountains because they provided extra bridge protection in periods of snow and ice.  The picturesque bridge is currently closed to vehicle traffic and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
