WOW just look at those beautiful West Virginia mountains in the background .

Weirdly, these are actually quite interesting pictures. Thanks for sharing

yes these bridges are a marvel to admire

looks beautiful, but why the roof?

The floors are all wood and all the support beams are wood . so if they were to get wet they would rot
