Vertical Lift bridges dominate the moveable type bridges in Southern and Southeastern, Louisiana. These bridges are perfect for Shrimp Trawlers, Oyster Fishers, and private fishing boats. Some smaller oil rig crew boats utilize these inland waterways for supplies. The boats are docked or moored for miles along these waterways.
Visit Instructions:
1) After you've found a vertical lift bridge, go visit it, get the coordinates, a picture or two of it, and if it is in use or not still as a lift bridge.
Then log it and post your pictures! At least one of the photos must be of you and your GPS there with the bridge in the background. (No old vacation shots or photos off the internet!)
2) Include the coordinates, city/county/state/country and the name of the bridge (if it has one).
3) Include any interesting information about the structure
