In all, there is about $200 in lumber and fasteners.\n<p>This bridge has an 8&#8242; section and a 10&#8242; section, meeting on a crib that sits on flat rocks slightly moved in a big mudhole or seep, where there is no actual channel in or out. The ground is rough and hummocky, so we figured to limit hiker impact by providing a clear dry path in place of herd paths as hikers sought drier footing.<\/p>\nCraig Sanborn,<br
