Culvert, Tide Creek Fragment. Not sure if this is the Adams Creek Cattle Pass or not.

Location of the culvert in the photo above. While I cannot verify that this is the Adams Creek Cattle pass until revisiting this fragment, the map evidence looks good and it is the only culvert visible in Street View, though that doesn't mean much since the old route is out of sight much of the time.
