List of covered bridges in Washington (state)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Below is a list of covered bridges in Washington state. There are five authentic covered bridges in the U.S. state of Washington,[1][2] and one of them is historic. A covered bridge is considered authentic not due to its age, but by its construction. An authentic bridge is constructed using trusses rather than other methods such as stringers, a popular choice for non-authentic covered bridges.
