Bridges
We walk/drive over them. We paddle/row under them. Some are simple logs over a swamp, others are masterful works of wood, stone and steel. Lets share some of our favorite Adirondack bridges.
#1 Eagle Lake Outlet, Short Swing Trail, PLWA #2 Putnam Pond Stream, PLWA #3 Grizzle Ocean Outlet, PLWA #4 Snowmobile bridges, Holmes Lake Trail, SMWF #5 Washed-out bridge, Lizard Pond Trail, WLWF #6 Berrymill Brook Bridge, HPWF

The bridges at White Pine Camp. When I was a student at PSC I lived at "The Pine" 69/70, We, the students living at the camp, rebuilt the long bridge that year. Good to see it's still there.

A bridge removed at BREIA and replaced by one the groomer could go over. Would like this installed locally over a creek I throw sticks in to get across.

While I'm digging up old photos, I posted a photo of the bridge at White Pine Camp that I took a couple of years ago, this is how it looked in 1969,
