Inspiration

The Knights Ferry Bridge, the longest covered bridge west of the Mississippi at 330 feet (100 m) in length. It was destroyed by the Great Flood of 1862. The new covered bridge was built at a higher level than the previous one, and it still stands today. The bridge was used for car traffic until it was closed to prevent damage in 1985.
