Bridge over the Skunk River in 1896; Iowa; Mahaska County

Bridge going over the Skunk River in 1896. The Skunk River is a mid-size river in terms of both its width and distance. The Skunk River also consists of two branches: the North Skunk River and South Skunk River. The irony of the two branches is that the South Skunk River actually begins its descent to the Mississippi River north of the North Skunk River. The two branches come together in Keokuk County, which borders Mahaska County directly to the East.
