Goat Canyon Trestle Hike, November 2013

[BorregoWrangler]

The Goat Canyon Trestle is an engineering marvel on the “impossible” San Diego and Arizona Railway that was constructed between 1907 and 1919 along the rugged Carrizo Gorge. The world's largest wooden trestle was built in 1932 after an earthquake destroyed one of the tunnels, forcing the railroad engineers to bridge Goat Canyon. This spectacular trestle remains to this day for adventure minded people to find deep within a rugged wilderness.

Ya have to go out and see it for yourself, to really understand the scale of the work that went into building this railroad. I did the MT bike thing from the water tower.
