Long Description:As described by the Friends of the PERE MARQUETTE RAIL-TRAIL of Mid
Michigan, there are 3 former railroad bridges between the Sanford
Trailhead and the Coleman Staging Area. The first of which is at
the Trailhead in Sanford and you can check out S5280ft's waymark
here.

We happened to find this one as we were making our way along W
Saginaw Road, which runs adjacent to the Pere Marquette Trail. The
only information found about this bridge is that it crosses the
Salt River. ("http://www.lmb.org/pmrt/Pic7.htm"

The Friends of the PERE MARQUETTE RAIL-TRAIL are probably right
about the view from the bridge, because the view of the bridge is
great, especially during the fall.
