Bridge to no where...for now

First, you need to move a ton of dirt by hand to make a 55 degree slope ridable to the gully.
Pick a suitable location for the bridge, in this case a large albeit dead tree (the top is missing since the last storm) but perfectly lined up to the "trail"
Fabricate some HUGE trusses for support (yes I used a level to install them)
Frame it up BABY
Tree Hugger or wood Gnome???
Screw in the decking
35 plus feet of hillbilly superstructure, this new bypass will skirt the mess down by the creek, four wheelers won't fit on it, and it will flow like honey WOO HOO!
Random Kayak photo, I hear Banjo's playing somewhere???

well...I'd have to cut about 1/4 mile of virgin trail by this weekend, and I need a couple more planks
