Did a little research into why the last covered bridge I was supposed to cross during my VT trip was replaced with a modern structure. Turns out that in February of 2021 the bridge, which had been built in 1910, caught fire after a snow mobile broke down on it and caught fire. The operator tried to put out the snow mobile fire with snow, but it spread to the bridge. The bridge became unstable and fell into the Missisquoi River. This is what it looked like.



This is what is there now.
