Lost Creek Covered Bridge

The sign over the Lost Creek Covered Bridge reads “Built About 1881.”  There is some debate on the internet if this span was reconstructed in the past or if it is original.  The roof was replaced in the 80s however.

 

 

I signed the guest book.  This was the first bridge I encountered with such a log.  Lots of people visit this bridge on a regular basis.  I guess there must be quite a number of people who are also visiting all the covered bridges of Oregon.

 

 

Next to the bridge is the Walch Memorial Wayside.  It is a small, well-kept private park in the memory of the Walchs.

 

Another memorial next to the bridge.  The people of this community love their covered bridge.
