Harrisburg Covered Bridge (Sevier County)

The Harrisburg Covered Bridge is a beautifully and authentically restored 1875 covered bridge over Dunn Creek/East Fork Pigeon River. The bridge had just reopened when I had arrived, creating a unique blend of old and new. More info and photos of the bridge can be found at this link. These photos were taken February 5, 2005.
