The ¾-mile floating bridge on the Mesabi Trail crosses the Embarrass Wetland Complex within the Darwin Myers Wildlife Management Area. This bridge was built in early 2025, and even though the bridge floats, it's stable and responds to changes in water levels. Cyclists often notice a unique sensation and sounds when crossing, describing it as both exciting and noisy.
