Can someone shoot me the gps coordinates for the sunken bridge in Ford Lake? Or the general location of where it is.... I'd appreciate it!!!!
Thanks!
Here's a link to the DNR maps
Pull up the Ford lake map. You'll see the road that runs into the lake (middle of the lake)
The bridge connected the 2 sides

Shouldn't be to hard to find
You line yourself up with both roads
What roads? http://binged.it/1t8L1jz
Thanks guys!!!! Here is a cool article I found on the bridge and why it's still down there.... As stated in the article, it is found off of Tuttle Hill rd. in 25' of water and 50 yard from shore.... Ice over the years has flipped it over.

Nice
Checked Google Earth. Didn't see anything obvious like a bridge but I imagine that water is darker so visibility wouldn't allow much light to reach 25 feet. You can see where the road used to hit the lake crossing. I wonder if the obvious is that Tuttle Hill Rd crossed to Harris Rd on the North? There is some pattern change to the East a little and closer to the South shore. Maybe that is part of the bridge?
Yes, Turtle hill crossed over
The bridge was shorter, It was a river crossing at that time
When they darned the river they made the lake
