Avery Bridge over Apishapa River
Las Animas County
The 1914 bridge was erected by the Trinidad Foundry and Machine Company. Their design was based upon a patent filed by Colby M. Avery in 1894.
Although structurally sound, and a rare survivor of the type at the time of listing, subsequent deterioration resulted in the replacement of the bridge in 1991.
