Default Scale trail bridge

I have had this idea for a while and finally took the time to build one. Let me know what you think. Its not quite finished yet, I ran out of wood but figured I would post up pics to see what people thought. It measures 6' in length and 13" wide and I used hemp twine to tie everything together.

Yea that was the plan at first but with it being 6' long I figured it would be flimsy so the closer and tighter everything is the stronger and longer it will last.

Looks good, would make a nice little adventure on the trail. Being that long, i would be nervous the whole time on it, it must be spanning some deep deep gorge. Or maybe thats just what i would be thinking while driving over.

Looks awesome. I've thought about doing something like that, but I don't have a good trail to put it on.
