Caption: Fourth Crossing Toll Road Bridge
Additional Description: Alex C. Beritzhoff, the first keeper of the old hotel, was also the first to conduct the toll bridge, built in 1853. This was the only bridge in the area (Mokelumne, Calaveras, Stanislaus and Tuolemne Rivers) that did not wash away during the floods of the winter of 1861-62 and is the oldest existing bridge in the State of California.
