Nice information Don. Thanks! Here is the 1963 aerial showing it. I assume I have the correct building of the two. Both are still there today I see except the one I circled is bigger.

Yea Guy, that's the one. Actually it was built for the farm labor. The club only used it in deer season.

Whoa! They were real men to bring those I-beams back there, wherever that is. If it was not for erosion, they'd last another 100 years. Is that a lump of concrete with aggregate embedded on the right far side?

The decking is not nearly as old as the rest of the bridge. It looks like it was laid on only two of the beams to allow people and/or motorcycles to get over the creek.

Yes Bob, there are concrete abutments on each side to carry the beams. The beams are fairly light duty, not as heavy as you would imagine. There are 5 beams so the loads were well distributed.

I kind of surprised myself when I found this bridge because I had been in the general area many times over the last 30 years and never went down this one path.

I can say I have no clue. Most things I see on this thread I know I have seen them but remembering where is the key. This one I have never seen or at least don't remember seeing. This is one of the reasons why I love this thread.

I don't see that Bob. It is in the Albertson Brook, Maple Island, Chew Road area of the woods.
