View of Wolfensberger Road bridge looking west toward the Santa Fe Quarry. The bridge is missing a large span across East Plum Creek and I-25. The Cedar Hill Cemetery and a Skelly gas station are on the west side of the creek. The damage occurred as the result of the June 1965 flood of East Plum Creek.
