Tom Walton sent this discovery to share:
We hiked up to the old ghost mining town of Monte Cristo [earlier this week] off the Mountain Loop Highway and came across the most peculiar West Seattle historical item. Some remnant girders from the 1978 West Seattle Bridge are being used as a bridge once again – but instead of cars, it’s hikers crossing the South Fork Sauk River.
We hadn’t heard of this, nor of Monte Cristo; its story is told by HistoryLink here.
