Long low-level footbridge across marshy Pine Creek. Larry Beranek writes: "A flood in Spring 1951, just after I was born, washed out the original bridge. The [current bridge pictured here] was built in 1953. The dam [mentioned here ] is gone now so the river remains a trickle til heavy rains or snow melt beef it up as happened in September of [2007]. The water was up to the stringer which supports the walking surface and the police had it taped off so no one would go on it."

Bridge was in existence in 1909. Although it resembles the original nearby Swinging Bridge at Sheboygan Falls, this bridge at "Pine Grove" appears to have been located within the Sheboygan park now known as "Evergreen Park" and also previously known as "Pine Woods".
