Scrambled over concrete barriers, skipped down a muddy path, and scaled a few mossy boulders to get a picture of Fernbridge this morning. Spanning the diminished Eel River, the bridge, built in 1911, is an all-concrete span of 1320 feet. Years ago, the bridge was closed to traffic for potential flooding. Crazy kid that I was, I decided to take a walk on the bridge. The river cresting at over 20 ft. with redwood logs rushing toward me was an experience.
