McGees Mills Covered Bridge

McGees Mills Covered Bridge extends 109 feet over the West Branch of the Susquehanna River with a single-span Burr truss design and white pine timber construction.

Thomas McGee constructed this bridge in 1873 for 175 dollars, making it the final covered bridge built in Clearfield County before its listing in the National Register of Historic Places.

The bridge structure displays the engineering methods from the nineteenth century, featuring hand-hewn local white pine timbers and traditional Burr arch architectural elements.

Visitors can find parking spaces on the northwest side of the bridge, with access from Route 219 and Covered Bridge Road leading directly to this historical structure.

This structure remains the last covered bridge spanning any section of the Susquehanna River, marking its special status among Pennsylvania's transportation heritage.
