Description

Image is a view to the west looking down the length of the bridge under construction in fore ground. Falsework is in place with cross logs prominently on top. A man stands at the far end of the bridge looking toward the camera. Another man nearby is sitting on a small cat tractor. Two cables and a logging chain are draped over the top logs of the bridge, presumably used to draw timbers onto the bridge. Mixed spruce and birch forest form the background.
