Bog bridges on Round Bald, TN/NC 4/13/23

Жыл бұрынThis was a fun project that took several weeks to complete ... well, it was fun except for maybe that one day in the middle!
We built the bridges over 2 weeks and then stored them until there was an opportune time to transport them. The weather didn't cooperate very well on that day but the ground was frozen, which was preferred. Installation day was nice though.
There is so much foot traffic on Round Bald that the surrounding area has deteriorated badly. It turns into a muddy mess when it becomes wet, whether from rain or snow. Right now the bog bridges are a temporary solution.

What a fantastic effort to try and solve a long-standing problem. Many thanks to all for this. Has there been brainstorming as to what could be a permanent fix to the erosion problem?

Thanks and You're Welcome. There is a committee trying to solve the problem. The foot traffic volume is too great. Right now we've investigating possibly relocating the AT around Round Bald with a Spur trail leading to the top. My fall back has been a monorail although a zipline might be kinda fun too!
