Covered Bridge South of Oquawka Near Ruin in Park
A decaying covered bridge once linked Oquawka area traffic now leads to a fenced corn field in a roadside park. Nearby a Nauvoo temple stone head honors the 1841 temple’s capitals with sun rays and hands of God offering plenty. Journal Photo by Naida Christian.

A Covered Bridge Tour Through Nauvoo Route
A 42 mile scenic drive from Muscatine to Nauvoo features a preserved covered bridge once on a quiet stream. Visitors encounter a roadside park with picnicking, a five dollar fine sign for leading cattle, and wasp guests in the rafters. The route passes Gulfport and Lomax to Nauvoo, noting historic Mormon landmarks, the temple ruins, Joseph Smith homestead, wine and cheese festival, and continuous river-terraced scenery with picnic tables along the highway.
