Steve_Colby Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 (edited) I wrote an article about my suspicions the new Bear Creek Bridge (West side of Sideling Hill Mtn) is not the bridge shown in the early postcard below. I had the occasion to better reconnoiter the area this week and my earlier suspicions were confirmed. The original bridge was upstream. Here's a photo I took Tuesday. Not only was the original bridge upstream, I believe the course of the creek was also changed when the new bridge was built. More pix. ~ Steve Edited March 25, 2010 by Steve_Colby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennyG Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 I'm repeating my comment from your Cumberland Roaad Alliance Forum so the ARMF crowd knows I'm appreciative: Excellent work. Although I can't claim to have never attempted roadway "archeology", I can claim to have never been particularly good at it. I am much more likely to benefit from your efforts than add to them and that makes me especially grateful. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_Colby Posted March 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Denny, Thanks for the kind comments. I know you, Jim, Dave (and other ARMF members) must have some great Déjà Views... The best format for loading them to the Forum is about 850px total width. I look forward to seeing them! ~ Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
