Deck Bridge in the Doe River Gorge

Some folks who braved crossing the deck bridge to get to tunnel 4 on the other side. I think Dean Smith (in the red shirt) sat on the girder and scooted across, determined to get over there without falling in. The top of the bridge is about 30-40 feet off the water so it's not an unreasonable fear. A hiker was killed years ago in a fall off this bridge, it'll be great when the camp gets this bridge in shape to be able to cross safely. May I'll try it then.
