The Windham County Natural Resources Conservation District in cooperation with the Watershed Forestry Program of the Agency of Natural Resources have constructed two portable skidder bridges to rent to loggers and consulting foresters in Windham County. If you are interested in further information regarding the Rental Program please contact Jolene Hamilton at (802) 254-5323, Ext. 104 

Portable skidder bridges are designed and intended for use as temporary structures for crossing streams during logging. They are also economical since they are reusable, and easy to install and transport from job to job. They are a reliable solution to help reduce logging costs associated with temporary stream crossings. Portable skidder bridges ensure that equipment and logs crossing over water bodies are not  causing stream bed or streambank disturbance and thus minimizing the potential for soil erosion. Portable skidder bridges allow loggers to harvest timber in compliance with Vermont’s AMP’s.
