Visit the Bridgeport Covered Bridge

The famed and picturesque Bridgeport Covered Bridge, spanning the width of the Yuba River, was originally built in 1862. It was an integral passage for a freight hauling route from San Fransisco to Nevada. 

This historic site is now protected and is no longer able to be walked or driven through as of 2011 due to structural problems, but there is scheduled to be a restoration of the bridge in 2018. 

Beyond admiring the bridge there is an old Shell Station, picnic areas, and a Visitors Center to learn more about the area and the Bridge. Also if the weather is nice, I would definitely recommend a dip in the river!
