Ha. I'm old enough I remember driving across the old bridge, lots of times. Well, my dad was driving - I was a kid.

We didn't take any pictures of the old bridge, but we took quite a few family trips to watch Tablerock Dam being built. We'd go on the side where the trout hatchery is now, or maybe just a little upstream from there, have a picnic, and watch the big cranes working. We took a bunch of pictures, and if I ever come across them I'll post some.

Sam, I for one would love to see some pics ,dig em out if you can.

OK, but it might not be real soon. My mom passed away in 2007 and all the family stuff had come down to her, now it's come down to me. There's a couple of big TRUNKS of photos, and the Tablerock Dam pictures are in there somewhere.

Now, if you wanted to see what my great-uncles looked like in 1912 - I think I saw those pictures on top.

:lol:

Sam old photos are always interesting especially anything related to fishing or the creeks and rivers in this area. Maybe post some on the photo forum .Have fun remembering the "good ole days"

In this pic you can see the new bridge abutment on the left side. you can see it in the down image , how could I have gone over top of the new bridge?

I think you're seeing the piling because you likely have DI set on wide. Notice it doesn't come all the way to the top of the water column. So you're seeing what is in the DI cone.

Very nice DI image, BTW.

I have a set of 4 old photo's from different angles of the old and new bridges. One of the photo's shows the rising water right to the bottom of the old bridge and another photo shows just the top of the old bridge sticking out of the water. I'll get them out of the frames and scan them and try and get them posted.

Great stuff guys !

I finally got some old photo's scanned of the old and new HW 13 bridges. Now, the trick will be to get them posted.
