Bridges of the Indians in British Columbia
An article notes indigenous bridge building on the Skeena River and its tributaries in northern British Columbia. Using cantilever designs, the Indians built wooden log structures spanning up to 120 feet with 80 foot above water, burying main members and anchoring with rock and cross bracing. They adopted wire cable, bolts, and spikes after observing colonial engineers and later rail construction, creating a distinctive hybrid suspension-cantilever bridge.
