Belknap Covered Bridge

 

It took me a little time to find the Belknap Covered Bridge.  I went too far up the Mc Kenzie River and ended up in Mc Kenzie Bridge.  The actual bridge is in the community of Rainbow.

 

 

The inscription reads: “HISTORICAL DATA.  The original Belknap Bridge was constructed in 1890 by Mr T. Thomspon.  This bridge was replaced in 1911 by Lane County with another covered structure.  The 3rd covered bridge was erected by Lane County in 1939.  This bridge was destroyed by the Christmas flood of 1964.  The present structure was opened for traffic on October 31, 1966.  Restored 1992.”
