Making a footing to support the center of the bridge at its weakest point. We fell this tree several weeks ago to build this crossing. The tree needed some realignment so we returned with block and tackle to pull it into place. The equipment turned out to be unsafe so we resorted to using logs as levers and were able to move the tree into place and onto the footing that way.
We made cuts like this the full length of the tree...
...then followed through with the pulasky and broke out the pieces.
One final pass with the saw to clean it up and this was the end result.
This texture from the cuts will provide some traction for hikers.
Spectacular rock wall looking down canyon. This trail has some awesome scenery.
