New Toll bridge on the Community Trail!



MVSTA trail boss James DeSalvo has spent the last couple of weeks leading an effort to replace a failing bridge on the Methow Community Trail. The old bridge, leaning side to side, was estimated at somewhere between 30-50 years old. Over those 30-50 years countless skiers, hikers, bikers, and wildlife have passed over the bridge probably never pausing to stop and think, "how did this bridge get here?". This is just one of the many year-round trail maintenance efforts that MVSTA initiates so we all can enjoy human-powered recreation on the Methow Valley Trail system. So the new "toll" on the community trail bridge is to pause a moment and thank, James DeSalvo, Kurt Oakley, Mike and Dee Real, Belinda Denchfield, William Worrell, Dan Weinstein, Andy Osterhoff, and Roger Hammer.
