Here is a side shot. Trailer on the right need to come over to the right. Concrete blocks on the left are sitting on stone base and have been their several years. I would like to add a few more this year to the right as well. They have supported a very large excavator that had to cross over to dig a pond. The bend in the retaining wall is also from that crossing.
Creek has never rose above 24" in spring run-off in the 30 odd years I have been here.
The actual distance across the creek is about 6' so i was allowing 2' on either side equaling my 10' I was hoping to sit the beams on the concrete and after cutting down my retaining wall place them level on the opposing side. With the water table so high I was going to dig down on the trailer side and pour another concrete pad their as against the existing retaining wall.
2 or 4 beams running across that I could weld into one unit and then cover with the rough cut timbers
Who wants to be first across it? or not
