This project reminds me of the bridge on Iowa Hill Rd in Colfax... Multimillion dollar bridge on a 10 cent road.... Genius!!!!

I wonder if the rental company knows where they took that crane. I operate a slightly smaller one at work (40 ton grove) and I dread even leaving the pavement.

Wow.... Wheeling the Rubicon in a crane... They really did make it so anything could get in there!

They actually bring the heavy stuff right into the 'con trail at Eliis, I forget the rd number that has a gate on it, but right there at the new pooper....

Re: Bridge over Ellis creek

yep, that's where they brought it in. Trail was in great shape, a little snow and the rain packed down the dirt so it wasn't dusty. Probably one of the better trips I've had because of that rain/snow storm.
