Support structures can really enhance the trail experience. Wildlife viewing decks, observation or lookout decks, warm-up chalets, sugar-shacks and trailhead kiosks, all contribute to an enriched usage of your trail system. Whether engineered or simple, boardwalks and bridge construction is our specialty. Boardwalks built over partially wet low areas are typically “floating” structures sitting on cribs; modified plankway-type boardwalks or “puncheons” often skirt areas of sensitive vegetation. Bridges up to fifty feet in length are built over small creeks and rivers.

Our structures are built to last and some of them have lasted more than three decades. Our first bridge was built in 1978 and still stands strong.
