    Can you imagine what this area looked like before they logged it with massive 200 foot plus tall old growth trees filling the gorge?

    I think that this bridge was originally built for the railroad. Steam locomotives pulled loaded cars of logs over it. After most of the timber was taken out and Camp Grisdale closed, it was all converted to automobile and truck traffic.

    My dad used this bridge for logging in the late 60s and early 70s for simpson timber. Plenty of 300' tall doug firs even back then.

      @@lauloretto One other thing. Wind can be a factor. I flew this with my Phantom 4. My Mini 3 Pro probably wouldn't be able to do it. Check out my Kelly Butte video for what the P4 is really capable of.

    I live 25 minutes north of Shelton, Washington. Where is the bridge?

    • @wilsonwmaddox
      @wilsonwmaddox  5 месяцев назад

      It's part of Forest Road 2340. Access by going west on W. Skokomish Valley Road from US 101, that's north of Shelton. Here's the Google map link

    Your about a hundred feet short in your estimate...height is 375 feet

      Probably so, was using the drone to guess it and eyeballing how close I was to the bottom looking down at the drone from the bridge.
