Dennis DeBruler commented on the above photo Of the three former WM bridges near Confluence, this one looks like the bridge on the south side of town. https://maps.app.goo.gl/BpqEmcuZGjEEGEGn8 |
WM was on the south side of the Youghiogheny River downstream of Confluence and on the south side of the Casselman River. It crossed the Youghiogheny River once and the Casselman River twice.

On the west side, I wonder why they didn't use the WM bridge for the GAP trail.
