Baronette Bridge

Status: Demolished
The bridge was originally built as a toll bridge for travelers to Cooke City. During the Nez Perce War of 1877, Native American Indians burned the log work. The bridge was rebuilt the following year, and over the years enhancements were made to the bridge by various owners before the United States Army took over possession and management of the bridge in 1894. A new bridge was eventually built upstream in 1903 and the old bridge was again burned and eventually torn down in 1911.
