On most timber sales there will be at least one creek crossing. The crossing method we like best is shown here. Zack Wilson of Wilson Logging Company is shown putting in a creek crossing on a timber harvest in Alleghany County, Carolina.
Here Zack is backing down to the creek crossing with a metal bridge mat.
Zack has positioned 4 four foot wide mats to form a bridge.
To finish up Zack is hauling brush that will be placed on either side of the bridges to keep the soil from rutting.
