Idiot Creek Bridge Update

Idiot Creek Bridge Update


It has been two weeks since my partner and I hiked the Idiot Creek Loop Road section of the Wilson river trail in Tillamook forest. If you recall, a big part of that was because there was a new bridge across Elk Creek that gave us dry shoe (and probably dry butt) access to the main part of the trail. At the time we wondered what would happen to that little bridge when it rained. Well, last week it rained big time (6-10 inches on the coast range). This week when we got to the trail, the Bridge Was Gone !!

Without Bridge
With Bridge




But a little too completely gone.
Turns out it is stored for the winter over there on the other side.
So..... no bridge for crossing and doing the Idiot Creek Loop Road hike probably until late Spring.





See the bridge hiding up there?
