#snowbridge

It always surprises me how much open water you can find, even in the middle of -30°C temperatures. Somehow, these small streams stay open for long periods, even in extreme cold. For us hikers, they always present a challenge, as crossing them over snow bridges or even ice is always an unknown danger.

It's known as the Snow Bridge because of the gates it has on it for dumping heavy falls of snow from the surrounding roads into the river below.

The Snow Bridge in Kelvingtove Park in the west end of Glasgow.

Built around 1800, it's one of the oldest surviving bridges over the lower reaches of the River Kelvin. When trams were introduced to the city in the 1870s, it was decided that the bend it creates on to Dumbarton Road was too tight for the new means of transport, and it was replaced by the nearby Partick Bridge.
