South Elevation, Looking Northeast

If there is any doubt of the sanity of a Bridge Hunter, note that these photos were taken on the coldest day of the year, on the south shore of wind-swept and very frozen Lake Winnebago.

For more about the history and significance of the bridges in Lakeside Park, see the essay under the Bridge Hunter listing for the Fountain Island Bridge.
