Body of water is again, Bayou Petit Caillou. This is the southern most vertical bridge on this waterway. From this point southward is smooth sailing to open waters of Gulf of Mexico (except a floodgate lock). Waterway is used almost entirely by commercial fishing vessels, save a few charter or private vessels.
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
