The thing was built in the late 19th century for a sickening amount of money, collapsed after one or two seasons, got fixed for another bale of money then collapsed again for good right after.

Otto designed and built the road over Marshall.Tom Purvishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618754717562698898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166668597557557578.post-11084265655766568372012-06-17T17:53:06.844-06:002012-06-17T17:53:06.844-06:00Aesome....I've got to spend some time up there...Aesome....I've got to spend some time up there in daylight one of these years.
