Description

Image is an oblique view of the down-river side of the bridge showing the completed "falsework" in place from the north approach to the south river bank. The foreground is an expanse of river gravel with lumber piles on it at middle ground near the bridge which extends across the middle ground view. The piledriver and derrick sit atop the bridge with two plumes of steam rising from the derrick. The forested mountain fills the backdrop.
