This 100-foot pin-connected Pratt through truss bridge spans Boggy Creek just upstream of the Verdigris River. This bridge was built in 1915 by the same firm that constructed the old highway 88 bridge over the Verdigris River. The bridge is no longer open to traffic, but is easily reached on foot. "Cry Baby Bridge" is also connected to an enduring ghost story; the bridge is said to be haunted by the spirits of a mother and child who died here during a storm.
