Skip S. of Mariposa was the first to answer correctly :-)

From Skip:
The photo shows the support trusses for the construction of William
Sell Bridge on Highway 49 S.

The dark area in the lower left of the trusses is where the old 49
highway crossed the river and this route can still be taken.

Question for you, who was William Sell? If you don't know the
answer is on the plaque on the monument at the bridge rest area.

Another question, what branch of what river does this bridge cross?

Can you answer his questions for us?
