Geocache Description:

Part of a series of micro caches placed at the covered bridges located in Greene County, Pensylvania.

Stream…..Hoover Run
Truss Type…..Queenpost
Length…..46ft, 6in
Width…..154ft
Builder…..unknown
Year…..1890
Ownership…..County


With a few boards missing here and there on the sides, this rustic bridge is covered with unpainted random-width vertical board siding. The roof is covered with steel metal and the deck with crosswise planking. The structure of the bridge rests on cut stone abutments, which are extended to form short wingwalls slightly higher than the road level. It has the typical narrow lengthwise openings under the eves. The King Bridge has no evidence of any steel reinforcement. It is open to vehicular traffic with the average three-ton weight limit.

The cache is located outside the bridge. There is no need to go under, around or climb the bridge. Also, do NOT park in anyone's driveway or on posted property. If you park at the following coordinates, there is enough room to pull off the road to let other vehicles pass. N39 45.436 W080 16.328
Again, this cache is NOT located on private property, but please be respectful of the nearby property owners.
