The new Amanda Trail Suspension Bridge construction has begun! The area is now being preped with clearing of the north and south landings of the bridge and construction of an access road into the area. Unfortunately it has required removal of two mature trees. During this time access to the Amanda Gathering area and Amanda Trail must be closed for safety reasons. The new 142 foot suspension bridge will be the only suspension bridge on the Oregon coast and will sit 25 feet above the Amanda creek, safe from any potential floods or slides.
