In Search of the Yachats Covered Bridge

Weather forecast, partly sunny, partly cloudy. No matter, we're headed out in search of the Yachats Covered Bridge. There are several ways to get to Yachats. Coming from the East on Hwy 34 and upon reaching Alsea, there's 2 choices. One way is out Deadwood Hwy, thru Lobster Valley and up back roads over the mountain..... hum goat trail. We opted for the conventional route Hwy 34 to 101, then South on 101. Yachats being a fairly small town, it was not hard to find Yachats River Road, travel about seven miles inland, till you reach North Fork Rd. Turn left and go all the way to the end to see the bridge.


The road to the bridge is narrow and muddy, but the small bridge looked dashing in a fresh coat of red paint.


A friendly visitor.


Rick finds a little detail.


Iron and Wood.


Different Perspective.



Old Cedar Tree.


We headed back to Yachats and up the coast to our favorite fish market.



Halibut and Chips


Perfect!

After our delicious dinner we headed south to Waldport in hopes of a sunset.

More to come ......
