Spotted this decaying old bridge on the way down to Tongariro, but went right past. It stuck in my mind though and I made a point of looking out for it on the way back…
Can’t quite explain it, but it feels so desolate, so absolutely lost and forgotten. The stream it once traversed is dried up, probably diverted for irrigation purposes. I don’t know – no sign of it nearby. No houses or buildings of any kind. Just this old broken bridge. Like the remains of a dinosaur.

It is a sad structure, to be sure. But I love it.
