Dent Bridge, Suspension bridge in Clearwater County, Idaho, US
The Dent Bridge stretches 1,550 feet across the Dworshak Reservoir, featuring a main span of 1,050 feet over the North Fork of the Clearwater River.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers completed the Dent Bridge in 1971 at a cost of 7.85 million dollars to replace a smaller bridge submerged by the reservoir.
The bridge name honors Charles and Katherine Dent, who owned the western land portion in 1895 before the settlement was relocated due to reservoir flooding.
The bridge connects the communities of Elk River and Orofino, eliminating the need for a 53-mile detour around the Dworshak Reservoir for local residents.
As Idaho's longest bridge, the structure stands at coordinates 46°36′09″N and 116°10′41″W, providing essential transportation access in the northwestern United States.
