What a great "adventure" :)
On a lot of the small backroads here in PA, they still have very old and very small high arched, narrow concrete bridges with high stone sidewalls. The roads seem to chase the creek on both sides, then make very tight 90deg turns to the bridge.
It's not unusual to find one with barely 20ft between the end of the bridge and the edge of the road. Fortunately, there is often a grassy patch to help clear the sides, but there are some that are against a mountain :E
Fortunately, the bridges are built well and thick, so not often a weight limit...except near Amish country. All kinds of wooden bridges and "over the mountain trails" on the maps, LOL.
We don't have too many washouts, as some of you face with changing weather and storms.
Maybe you can put a skull and crossbones sign at the head of that road you were on. Even the most hardcore GPS-follower would understand that sign ;)
