The 180 foot long suspension bridge, built 1959-1960, along the Wilderness Trail, in the New Hampshire Pemigewasset Wilderness was dismantled in late 2009. To this day the Pemigewasset Wilderness bridge removal project causes heated debates among hikers. The reality is Forest Service stayed true to protecting New Hampshire’s few designated wilderness areas from human impact. This work shows the site before and after the bridge was removed.
