Another geocache is located near here! This is another great bridge, although Offutt's Ford has the best of six covered bridges in the county. However, the black ornamentation is in excellent shape. The bridge was built in 1877 and rehabilitated in 1996. Bridgehunter.com lists the average daily traffic as being 250. (A good number to keep in mind while geocaching!) It does have a great window, and is one lane only.
Current Condition of Bridge: Fair
