This beautiful bridge is 180 feet long, making it the longest covered bridge in Oregon. It spans the North Fork of the Middle Fork of the Willamette River. It is one of only two bridges in Oregon that is constructed with triple timber trusses, needed to support the weight of heavy logging trucks. The name comes from its early days, when it connected the Westfir Lumber Company's lumber mill with its office. Another unique feature is the attached covered pedestrian walkway. The bridge is still in use.
