Percha Creek

Built in 1927, this historic Warren deck truss bridge spans Percha Creek, cutting through an impassable but beautiful gorge below. The bridge was constructed during a difficult project to build the Black Range Highway, now NM 152. This structure has been preserved by the New Mexico Department of Transportation and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Marker is on New Mexico Route 152 at milepost 46, on the left when traveling west.
