Was in the forestry/timber/logging industry for 43 years. Would never attempt to cross an obstacle over 50’. I preferred culverts, logs and fill first. Sweet gums were found to be the best trees for crossing a span. They are very long and straight, are slightly flexible. They make the best railroad ties because of their
Flexibility. Then we would board the span. I always wondered if creosote stadium poles would be good for a long crossing. Then board. A large stadium pole could have 20-30 feet laying on each side of the obstacle. I have no idea of the cost. Just a thought. Also some sort of cable bridge (ATV or walking only). I have seen these used for access over long/wide obstacles. Just walk.
