Building a bridge with the help of 10 mules on North Dakota’s Maah Daah Hey Trail
Building a bridge in the North Dakota Badlands isn’t just an engineering feat—it’s a return to tradition. When trucks can’t get there without scarring the land, the U.S. Forest Service turns to its oldest allies: pack mules. For the first time in 20 years, these sure-footed animals helped ferry supplies to restore a fallen bridge near the Maah Daah Hey Trail. Backed by a small army of volunteers, this blend of old-world method and new-generation stewardship is keeping the trail—and its spirit—alive. Joey Harris with Bismarck Tribune has the full story.
