Note that there is no truss bridge in this photo. This photo was taken before the Bull Shoals Dam was built and shows the original river level.

| 417 Drone Shots posted Forsyth, Missouri 🌉 | Taney County The first shot with the new DJI Air 3’s 70mm telephoto lens, and what better subject than the two bridges here in Forsyth. The longer focal length really pulls the scene in tight, showing off the red truss bridge against the bluffs in a way the wide lens just can’t. 🚁📸 Loving the extra perspective this second camera gives—plenty more to come as I keep exploring the Ozarks (and beyond). Don't forget to follow me to see more. Thank you. 417 Drone Shots shared |
Evidently a lot of rain will put the arch bridge under water. Note that the comment says the Bulls Shoals Lake level was higher than what we see here. Fortunately, a concrete arch bridge should pressure wash nicely.
