Still don't know how we found this one. Foliage grows up near the road, and the concrete curbing isn't even visible, and there are no warning signs. The photos are poor, we know, but there was no way to get down there to get a better view.

This culvert on Coffee Creek Road is about one-quarter mile east of Triple XXX Road, northwest of Luther. The area has a few homes, and a small, unnamed creek runs north-south at this location. The tunnel opening can only be estimated, and it appears to be about 3 ft. high and perhaps 5 ft. wide. The WPA shield is covered with dirt, but we are guessing the year is 1936 as this is when the other culverts in the area were constructed.
