Geocache Description:

One of several bridges built in Yosemite National Park between 1922 and 1933.

This is a great example of stonemasonry, using local stone. It is on a fairly easy walk to a fairly well known landmark. It is about 2 miles, round trip, on easy trails. Many people think these bridges were built by the CCC in the 1930s, but most actually predate that organization.

Email me the answers to these questions before logging your find:
(1)what flows under the bridge (on a sign at the near end),
(2)what is the most common destination of people crossing the bridge, and
(3)what valuable commodity was harvested at that destination early in the park's history (either of the two listed on signs near that destination).

My GPSr read 37° 44.898' N by 119° 32.952' W, but reception was very poor at the sign with the second answer.

Have a great time in Yosemite!

Since this is in Yosemite National Park, the Holy-of-Holies for California outdoorsfolk, a physical cache is not allowed.

Do not post answers in your log, even encrypted, or your log will be deleted. I will delete logs that are not validated by emailing the answers above.
