| Bridge building in wilderness - life of bridge expected to be at least 20 yrs. |
Building this bridge has made the hiking trail easier to negotiate. It invites us to cross - to keep walking up the trail, taking it in. By maintaining trails on public lands we ensure the integrity of the area. Staying on trails and crossing streams with care can help protect surrounding fragile banks and hillsides. One may go to these places to enjoy them, to know them. But by looking after them we can continue. The pathways and bridges into national forests and wilderness areas invite us to keep exploring.
