Bridge is decked and the wear planks are on. We still need to build the approach ramps and put the railings on. More photos have been posted on the club website. http://www.ossipeeva...m-october-23rd/

Looks real good ...I know you guy's must have calculated the carry wieght. How much will that bridge hold? Most likely for the Tucker being used.
A thought crossed my mind the other day, that many people wonder why a club would need a bridge like that in the wood's.. well of course for the heavy equipment to cross.. But, in a greater Emergency use for a tanker truck of water for Forest Fire access

These two 50' bridges are built to exact Forest Service specs, as they are in the WMNF.
Super over built for sledding uses, the frame can carry fully loaded tractor trailer log trucks.

I believe you are correct on the size (16' 2x10's) automover can correct me if I'm wrong. Jim and I hauled in the planks with the Ranger while the other guys nailed them down. The planks were pressure treated as per the forest service specs.
