An important feature of the hiking trail is the “Bedoukian Pedestrian Bridge”. In the summer of 2000, an aggressive fundraising campaign successfully recruited generous corporate sponsors to donate to the bridge construction to increase our capital for the bridge construction to $120,000. By July of 2001, all of the necessary building, planning, and environmental permits were secured for the project. The bridge design specification was developed into a bid package in July and advertised for bidding. The low bid for the bridge was $168,500 - considerably higher than the funds available.
