Description

At Highway 2 mile 45.9, turn onto the NE Old Cascade Highway (look for the sign for Money Creek Campground). Follow this road 1.3 miles to the old river crossing at an elevation of 890'. The historic Miller River Bridge, constructed in the early 1920s, still stands, but the approach washed out during a January 14, 2011 storm, permanently closing this crossing. Ironically, a Bridgestone Super Bowl commercial depicting the bridge washing away aired just a few weeks later. River access is still possible from river left, though King County plans to remove the remaining road prism as part of floodplain restoration.
