Geocache Description:

Thank you to Mohai for the description and historical information below. Photo courtesy of Monroe Historical Society at www.monroehistoricalsociety.org

This is the third bridge to cross the Snoqualmie River in this area. The first was located about a quarter mile downstream very near the physical Cache of Palindromes. That bridge stood 90 feet above low water, hence the name of High Bridge. I don't have the date of construction but everything but the span was rebuilt in 1906. In 1915 a new bridge was built at this location and the original bridge was removed (see photo). That bridge was replaced in 1996 by this concrete span.
