Neal Lane Covered Bridge

Posted by Steve Rice (Olympia, United States) on 16 July 2009 in Architecture.

Built in 1929, this 42 foot (12.8 meter) bridge of the Kingpost truss type spans South Myrtle Creek in Douglas County, Oregon, USA. It has a 3 ton (2.7 metric ton) load limit. It is currently closed for repairs.

Part of the Covered Bridges of Oregon series.

this must be the smallest one you've encountered I suspect. Steve are you submitting this series for a gallery showing or for a calendar? If not, you really should!
