	14 August 2001 The first bridge section is being lifted.
	The first bridge section was shipped backwards, so the crane is rotating the section. The crane is at it's limits to do this maneuver.
	The winch frame is being lowered on the first section of bridge.
	With the winch frame attached, the first section of the bridge is being placed inside the east tower. Don't forget this section of bridge will end up on the other side of the river.
	The first section of bridge has been placed on the guide frame in the east side tower. The Iron workers are now attaching the lower pulley blocks from the trolley above to the winch frame. The steel cables will be attached to the two electric winches on the winch frame.
	The trolley riding on the two inch steel cables has been released from the east tower.
	This is as far as the first section of bridge got over the water today. The bridge was moved to the right for the night.
	The half inch steel line on the Cat was replaced with one inch steel line. The bridge was secured for the night.
	This is how the bridge sections were transported. Eight over width/length permits were required to deliver each bridge section from Elliot Lake to Marathon.
