Deck Truss: (no Archived Bridge Hunter; Satellite) Did carry MI-26, now it is a pedestrian bridge.

Joe Fishbein posted two photos with the comment: "Eagle River, Michigan, in the Keweenaw peninsula, has two interesting bridges over its namesake river. The deck truss dates to 1915, and originally carried highway M-26 (I drove over it many times when I was in school up here). In 1990, a timber 3- hinged deck arch was built for the highway, and the old bridge was rehabbed for pedestrians. Two cool bridges over a very scenic river. My photos from today [Sep 19, 2024]."
Andreas Jordahl Rhude: The southern pine structural glued laminated timber was manufactured by the former Sentinel Structures Inc at Peshtigo Wisconsin.
Pete Wessel: There’s also an old pony truss just downstream.
