Day 1
Notes
Got the map and drove to about 6 covered bridges. Some you can drive over, some you can't. There is also a very cool lookout called Clark's Tower. The best part was driving up to it.

Took the Cog up to the top. I would have liked to have spent more time at the summit, but I'd be so distracted by the sights while driving up that I feared going over the edge.
