This is the third of three nearly identical prestressed concrete girder bridges that cross the Mississippi River in southeastern Beltrami County. This bridge is the shortest of the three. It sits on a thin isthmus between two lakes, Lake Andrusia and Cass Lake.

Note that the bridge is covered with graffiti. I only remember two bridges over the Mississippi River that had any graffiti, and both are located on entrance roads into the Leech Lake Indian Reservation. No commentary here, just a reporting of the facts.
