In the recent floods, we lost one of my favorite bridges, which gave access to the "other side" of the Sheep River, and trails less frequently traveled.
Here are some pictures pre-flood and post-flood. This is testament to the force of water - combined with large trees.

| Pre-Flood and ....... |

| ....Post-Flood (note, path of river has shifted) |

| Trees came down the river and destroyed the bridge |

Finally here is a shot of the Tiger Jaw Falls and bridge in early June
just before the floods, with someone (who shall remain nameless!)
artfully negotiating the river |
