Emily C mine trip

Terry and I hiked in to the cabin last week. Here is a short video:

Last fall I left a camera near the cabin that was set to take one photo per day. I was surprised to find that it took a picture every day of the winter even with temps down to 40 below zero or so. Here is the timelapse video:

Bridge Concrete Pour # 3

Here are some pictures of forming and pouring one of the side arches:

Here is a composite picture made from several overhead pictures stitched together. You can see the bridge foundations and temporary footbridge.

We had lots of help for the pour. Here is my friend Warren placing the concrete. The extra money spent on the concrete conveyor truck made placing the concrete much easier and was well worth it.

Concrete was screeded off with a 2x4 by Zane (right) and Tehl King (lower right), two young men I hired for the day. Bill is setting the stone in the concrete.

Bill's wife Sharon and Terry helped pass rocks to the others who were setting them. 

It was a relief to get that one done!
