From County Rd 300 N to N County Rd 400 E, Seymour, Jackson County, Indiana
Flat rock road across river bottom. Check out the old covered bridge at the south end. Also look over the west side of the new concrete bridge on the south end. When the water is low you can see a series of 40 to 60 foot long logs laid parallel across the river. My assumption is this was an early method of providing a river crossing---anyone have more info?

Thru a little more research i found that the corduroy log bridge was in service during the early 1820's. Darn near two hundred years old and the logs are still there--amazing!
