This is the first part of a two part mini series on a quick summer project connecting two parts of my property. They are separated by a seasonal creek that stays swampy even when no water flows and it can still be tricky to get across it in the best of weather.
The project took about 30 hours to build and was done almost entirely out of material I had in my boneyard with the exception of the driving surface which I'm still deciding on. It is functional and I have driven across it with a temporary deck on it for construction.
This video will take us though cleaning up and reinforcing some salvaged beams as well as placing them on the footings, The bulk of the build and final dirt work will come in the second video next week (maybe earlier:)
Happy Holidays and as always, Thanks for watching
Jake
