Title
Bridge with sign: "Walk your horses."
Description
A Parker-truss bridge with stiff compression members and cable or rod tensioned members. The main frame may be timber, resolution is insufficient to make any judgement on the verticals. The stringers (horizontal members) may be iron or steel I-beams: there appears to be a riveted or bolted splice plate in the one visible and its dimension is substantially smaller than the cross-timbers that hang from it to support the road bed. The portal trusses (across the ends) appear to be of riveted iron or steel construction. Piers are rock-filled log cribs, single-notched and laid close. This was (most likely) in British Columbia, Alaska, or Yukon. Of three buildings to the right of bridge, two appear to be of sawn-lumber construction; the third is too far to tell. A log building is visible on the bank to the left (looking beneath the far end of the bridge).
