Description

This view, taken from the riverbed, shows the narrow downstream side of one of the concrete piers centered in the foreground with a portion of two steel spans attaching to the top of the pier. The sheet pile-enclosed footing at the base of the pier is evident, as is the rather detailed cap atop the pier. Considerable lumber appears scattered in the snow at foreground. Enlargement revels a cat tractor on the river ice behind the pier in middle ground. Mountains form the near and far background.
