There is a small farm where my family rides our ATVs and a creek separates half of it. The creek is probably 12 feet deep with inches to a foot of water in it . The problem is its 22 to 20 feet wide and like any Creek meanders along. Getting materials down to that bottom is impossible unless it’s on an ATV or towed behind an ATV on a cart.
My friend said, after looking at the Crossing spot that I should use two trees that could yield two twenty-two crossing beams each, 12 inch diameters and use 2×4 by 8′ pressure treated lumber for the decking. I’ll use crushed rock or limestone and the base for the logs. The trees with the green paint is where I plan on building this. I do not want to remove them so we won’t affect bank stability.

Am I crazy?
