US322 Clarion River Bridge (Old)

Wasn't that bridge something like weight limit 2 (2 1/2?) tons in its later years? (That bridge gave me the creeps, and the opaque blue-green water didn't help.)

That's our Light Brown Dock on the right, I think we (my dad and Andy Feld) built it in 1973-1974, we had a boat on the river until 1977. We used large chunks of foam versus barrels under the dock. We got the foam from a local OI plant. We lived nearby in Shippensville. I remember lots of water snakes around that part of the dock as a kid. (I learned to water ski on that river!) Good times! Great pic! Thank you! Rob

Brian moved your Photo to front. Just a preference, always prefer photo, then original art then published.

Don,i see the water spout.When i looked at the satellite imagery i didn't or basically see the water spout.Thanks for pointing that out.

George;

I see a structure called Ebenezer Spring at

41.223241, -79.401944

It is basically a stone wall with a water spout in the ornate center section.

Attached is a screenshot. I don't see another similar structure in the area.

Don,we may have our wires crossed here.When heading out of Clarion on 322 before you cross the river take the first left onto old 322 to the end of that road.If you swing the satellite to the left you can see what looks like a metal door surrounded by stone.That's what i'm talking about.Doesn't look like a spring to me.

Hey George;

That stone structure at the end of old 322 is a spring. There's a photo of it (as well as a photo of the old iron bridge) on this page:

I have a question.If you go on street view to the end of old U.S. 322 is that an oven i see in the hillside surrounded by stone?I could be right,i could be wrong.If anyone knows please let me know because i know the area had a lot of kilns outside years ago.

Yet another good postcard find, Dana.

Keep up the good work.
