This bridge was built when the
Bull Shoals Dam was built.
The lake is a dam reservoir and we can see that the lake level fluctuates quite a bit.

Bull Shoals Lake flooded the Little North Fork White River. That makes me wonder where the Big North Fork is. When I Googled "Little North Fork White River," I got some results that included "Little". When I Googled "Big North Fork White River," I got results for just "North Fork White River." So I guess there is no "Big." So why have a "Little?"
