Legend tells of a young woman from Stowe, Vermont, who hanged herself on the Gold Brook covered bridge about 150 years ago. The most popular story of her death starts with her angry parents forbidding her from marrying the man of her dreams. Angered, she planned to run away with her lover and elope. The night that they were to meet, Emily arrived at the bridge early, but her fiancee never came. Emily gave up hope, and in her sadness, she took her own life. She hanged herself from a beam within the bridge, in the dead of night. Since that day, the bridge is rumored to be haunted.


Directions: Begin at the White church, in Stowe, Vermont. Proceed down School Street for .3 miles, bearing right onto Stowe Hollow Road. Travel for .8 miles, and bear right onto Covered Bridge Road. Continue until you see Emily's Bridge. I'm told that the weight limit sign is missing from our clue is missing, and we don't really want to change the lousy poem; we only have just so much creativity to spare! If you stay on the Stowe side of the bridge, you should do just fine.


Clue:Park on the right, but do not pass through.
The box that you seek is waiting for you.
Walk on the right, proceeding with care.
Emily's ghost still lives under there.
Approach the white sign that cautions of weight.
Don't turn back in fear; you're doing just great!
Vermonsters always seek a safe place to hide,
so look into the guard rail on your right side.
