The old bridge, which was replaced by a new one slightly downstream, continues to provide a pedestrian walkway and bicycle path across the river. It offers a unique vantage point of the scenic South Yuba River. The luscious green vegetation along the hillsides contrast to the polished, house-sized granite boulders and enticing emerald pools along the river. As the sun sets over this landscape, everything becomes even sharper, providing you a sense of awe for what Mother Nature created.
