Bridgeport Historic State Park
Built in 1862, Bridgeport is the longest single span covered bridge in the country. It is 251 feet and one of just 14 covered bridges in the state. It was constructed from local Douglas fir on granite blocks using a unique type of construction called the Warren Truss with an auxiliary Burr arch. The bridge was used extensively during the Gold Rush days by Wells Fargo stagecoaches as they rode to the different northern mines.
