Jack's Mountain Covered Bridge (Adams County, PA)

This was the fifth of seven bridges I photographed on Sunday (8-30-2009) while on a tear through Cumberland, Adams and part of Franklin County. The bridge was built in 1890 by Joseph Smith. It is located on Jack’s Mountain Road in Hamiltonban Township. It crosses 75 feet over Tom’s Creek and utilizes a Burch arch design. The property around the bridge includes a Log Cabin home on well manicured landscape.

Jack’s Mountain is the only Adams County Covered Bridge still open to daily vehicular traffic. The WGCB # for this bridge is 38-01-08.

I shot this as seven bracketed RAW frames and then combined them into an HDR with Photomatix Pro and finally, tone mapped that image to create the final product.
