We saw this sign, and decided to check it out. This
state park is tucked away in a tiny valley surrounded
by pine trees. In 1877, a prospector named David
Gowan stumbled across the bridge as he was being
chased by Apaches. He hid for 2 nights in a cave
inside the bridge. On the third day, he explored the
area and claimed squatter's rights. His nephew
and family came over from Scotland and settled
the land. A lodge was built here in the 20's, allowing
the well-heeled to come and enjoy the peace
and quiet of the area.
