Maybe not man. I saw it sat morning (apparently right before you showed up) and saw it was getting sketchy. There is plenty to be done

Yeah we did it around 10am Sunday. It was right on the verge of falling into the creek, didn't want have to drag it out from downstream after the next big rain.

My six year old son and 4 year old daughter are going to be very disappointed. They loved navigating that super sketchy bridge by themselves. I wasn't allowed to help. What fun is a quality bridge? (this is a serious question) Its not like the rest of the approach is ADA approved.

Don't worry, as Steph pointed out it remains adventurous.

The thanks on the materials purchase for the bridge goes to Stephanie Meadows. Psyched for Saturday! Thanks to everyone in advance for coming out to help!

Can we leave the old busted bridge for historical and adventurous purposes.

Ha! True, except I might be an outlier for the population since I gain in the summer and lose in the winter.

The work you did was great and totally worth the effort. I was psyched to see it when we got there in the afternoon. Man, you bolt, fix bridges, and try to get roads reopened. Awesome.
