The Old Bridge Cache is located near an abandoned bridge over the San Miguel River.
Another cache along Hwy 141, a highway recently discovered to be the center of the known universe. (OK, I know what you're thinking. But Hwy 550 is only the center of the galaxy. And the world merely revolves around Moab.)<p>The bridge in question has not been in use for nearly twenty years, and is signed as such. To get across to River Road (and access to Paradox Canyon and Paradox Valley) continue east on 141 another mile and cross on the new bridge.<p>The cache is actually a coffee can (for now). The original contents stuffed into it include a reversible screwdriver, a brand new leather wallet, a Nickelodeon toy, a kids' book, an official Little League baseball, Care Bear figures, and about four Matchbox cars.<p>We hope you enjoy this area of the State as much as we do. We have other caches in the area, Two Forks, Valley View, and the brand new Carpenter Ridge Multi-Cache.

Marking this one found — although we didn’t sign the log due to high water and not very good footing — but we did see that cache and can send pics to verify! Beautiful bridge! Thanks for the leg stretch! Please forgive the non-sign!

Last day of my bike tour, this leg from Telluride down to Gateway. This was an easy find, although I managed to get a cactus needle right through to my little toe.

My son and I were motocahing (geocaching by motorcycle) in beautiful southwest CO. We had some fantastic riding and picked up a few caches along the way. Neat old bridge and wonderful backdrop. TFTH.
