As winter is coming to a close, I thought it was time to check if there was any snow left on the local rail trails. On this portion of the Trans Canada Trail (KVR) the actual trail is beside the unused tracks and most of it is impassable by bike or walking due to snow and ice. As the weather changes In the next few days, these trails will be very busy with hikers and bikers.

For just a brief fleeting moment before a thick layer of early morning clouds would seal off the glimmering passageway – These steel rails look as though they could take one on a journey to the very center of the Sun. – Mapleton, Wisconsin – November 2021 ~~ A Jeff Hampton Photograph ©

The Pudding Creek Trestle

Ten Mile Trail

Fort Bragg, California

 

Sometimes the path from railroad to bike trail is a bit convoluted.

 

Constructed in 1915, the Ten Mile Railroad brought lumber from a logging area 10 miles north into Ft Bragg. The railroad line was converted to a haul road in 1949, which remained in use until 1983 when it was damaged by El Nino storms. The haul road was then converted into a trail as part of a local habitat restoration program. It is now part of a protected cultural and historic site.

 

The Pudding Creek Trestle is 527 feet long and 44 feet high, with 34 uprights in it.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

Every time just wonderful to look at the rails and follow them with the eyes. This picture I made at the old Train Station in Gomaringen.

Quick snap as I passed over the BNSF line near Wellsville, Ks
