Rouggly-Kiepe Road Bridge

Posted February 13, 2008, by David Rouggly (drouggly [at] comcast [dot] net)

I'm afraid your map somehow has the wrong location. Perhaps there's a "Rouggly Road" in that vicinity, and perhaps there's a bridge of some sort at that location, but it's not "Rouggly-Kiepe Road", and it's not the bridge you have photographed.

I'm intimately familiar with the bridge in the photos; played in the creek underneath it throughout my childhood. Actual location is several miles east of your mapped spot. Rouggly-Kiepe Road runs due north and south, and ends in an oblique intersection with US 61 about 100 feet south of this bridge; that intersection is about 1 mile south of the 61 / AA intersection.
