This is the Beginning of the trail...
you take a right onto this first bridge, and ride it until you get to the ajacent log and there will be more rungs to get you smoothly onto it.


A close up of the first turn/intersection


I placed the rungs pretty far apart on the flat sections so that I could save them for other sections of trail...


Here is the log ride, this is right after you get off the first ladder...


I placed the rungs closer together here to get more support...


I ran out of rungs here, at the end of the part where there is no bark I discovered humongous fire ant nest, there were no survivors:devil:


Here is the last ladder that is finished... there will be more to come. From here the trail takes a sharp left and leads you onto another log ride.


I also encountered a 3 foot long 2 inch diameter poisonous snake on the way to the trails...:thumbsup:

good stuff. do a search for information about "frank's trails", it was near tampa and was supposed to be ladders all over the place.

I'm hoping to start my own bridgeland in the backyard of the I'm moving into, there's plenty of land, but the wood is expensive.
I thought it was near orlando, but it doesn't really matter because I think the guy moved and tore down all of the stuff and gave most of the wood to the ridgeriders.
