North Footbridge to Barker's Island


Description

There is a large island in the backwater of the dam just upstream of the course. Quite interestingly, a railroad line makes use of this island to cross the river.

There is a pedestrian bridge giving access to Barker-Stewart Island Park, where there is a marker for the historic site of the Barker & Stewart Sawmill. This pedestrian bridge is part of approximately a mile of multi-use (walking/biking) trail along the river-left shore, giving access to this island and Isle of Ferns (downriver).
