Kennedy Meadows Bridge Repair Trip
Hello All,
Recently Paula and I, and many other volunteers from the High Sierra Volunteer Trail Crew spent a week rebuilding a bridge over the Kern river about 2 miles from Kennedy Meadows Campground.
The bridge is a 70' steel span that was installed in 1984. The top deck and handrails were in disrepair and badly need to be replaced. Below are some before and after photos of the bridge. As I get time I will add some process photos.
We hiked into and out from the bridge each day for a total of 4 miles a day. We stayed in the campground in our RV and were fed great meals prepared by Dave.
Stay tuned for more photos.
