Wild Cat Bridge

On our Tuesday Travels last week, Dale and I headed west on Hwy 126 toward Florence. It was ideal Fall weather, so the aim of the ride was to do some geocaching along the road until we got tired (and hungry). We haven't done much exploring in this direction, so geocaching along the way gave us plenty of just-off-the-road places to visit.

We were very pleased to come across another covered bridge of which we had no previous knowledge. What an idyllic setting!


Built in 1925, this is another of the wooden covered bridges that Lane County is known for. I think this is the 6th we've visited so far.


Wild Cat Bridge spans Wild Cat Creek at the confluence with the Siuslaw River near Austa Landing County Park. Down the river here you can see where Hwy 126 crosses.

We're at the point in Fall where the leaves are merely starting to turn colors. 


We took a short break here, then headed west once more.
