♪♪ [Kohlsdorf] The three-span Parker truss bridge was constructed in the late 1890s and is named after Allen Sutliff, who established the original ferry business.
It carried car traffic until 1983 when a modern bridge was constructed nearby.
The overpass became a local landmark with its picturesque setting and access to the river.
In 2008, flood water topped the bridge deck and washed away one of its three spans.
It was restored and reopened for pedestrians in 2012.
