Old Telegraph Pole
Took some random shots of stuff while walking back. There are still many of the old telegraph poles out in the woods.

I walked back out using the old MOW road along the fill. Kind of looks like a tunnel through the forest now.

Thought I was getting close to the bridge at this point, but I still had a ways to go.

Getting closer...
The old bridge site was about a quarter mile ahead. I believe you can just make out the north abutment at the end of the trail.

All the old abandoned Rock Island bridge sites in Washington County have chain link fence around the abutments. I think this was some sort of safety prevention done after they were torn out to keep people off them.

Gives you an idea how tall and large the Rock Island fills are on the former Golden State Route in SE Iowa. When this was built in 1945, they moved a ton of dirt to make these tall fills, which are still all over this part of the state.

The former Rock Island bridges in Washington County have fence around the old abutments. I guess the county put it in after the bridges were torn out as some sort of safety measure.
