The
Canyon Creek Bridge in Canyonville could be
mistaken as part of Pioneer Park's landscaping
design rather than a functional pathway over the
creek in Canyonville.
The bridge is just
about wide enough for two people to walk through
side by side. It hearkens back to a simpler time
when picnics were held on the banks of the creek
with the squeaking of swings in the background.
Standing in the middle of the bridge, the swift
current drowns out the noise from the freeway.
The bright lights of the Seven Feathers casino
are blocked by the wood panels and tin roof. The
white exterior stands in contrast to the large
dusty piles of gray gravel on one side and the
park's green grass on the other.
