This beautiful bridge is the first of its kind in Canada, built back in 1942-43. The bridge is still the only one in use today.

This is a perfect picture spot of the unique wooden trestle bridge. The curved bridge offers beautiful views and a rich perspective of the older days. Approximately 500,000 board feet of creosoted British Columbia fir were used to construct the bridge.
