Covered Bridges Byway
Hune Bridge
The Hune Bridge will be
the easiest to find of all the covered bridges along the byway.
It's located right at the side of the road. It's also quite
photo-friendly, with a calm, reflective stream running underneath.
Another great thing about
this covered bridge: you can drive across it. On the other side,
there's parking and a camping area, as well as access to the stream.

The Hune Covered Bridge was built in 1879. It spans 128
feet. |

There are two more covered bridges nearby: the Rinard Bridge is
on County Rte. 406 to the north, and the Hildreth Bridge is on
County Rte. 333 to the south. I passed these without
searching for them because the sun was starting to set.
You should also note that
county routes are not well marked. Ooften there's only a
small sign at the end of the road. It's easy to pass by
without noticing the route you're seeking. |

Oil wells like this one
are an unexpected feature of the landscape in this part of Ohio.
It's unlikely they produce very much oil, and during my visit, most of
the ones I spotted were turned off. However, you will see plenty
of oil storage tanks by the side of the road, and occasionally catch a
whiff of petroleum in the air.
