I recently came across several photos of a terrific new trail bridge over Mink Brook in Hanover NH that was designed by Tahawus Trails Inc. It's worth googling it to find the images from the opening celebration.
At first glance it looks like an impossibly long single log span bridge (top hewed flat) with peeled log railing. But it really is an under-supported suspension bridge kept aloft by two very taught cables under the structure. Very interesting design.
