Notes
  • Significance: The Escalante River Bridge, built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1940 under the supervision of Albert DeLong, Jr. and Daniel N. Covington, represents a unique multiple span concrete slab bridge. It is the only known bridge in Utah which was built to allow floodwaters to flow over its deck and is the last one-lane bridge still extant on the Utah State Highway system. The completion of the bridge and road provided the first all-weather road connecting the town of Boulder to other parts of Utah and ended one of the last pack mule postal services in the United States.
