There is no driveway yet. Dealing with a clean slate and just trying to figure out the best way to do it, its all in CRP now. The driveway will be around 1800ft w the land bridge, and about another 500 w/o the land bridge. Even if I go around the pond I still have to deal with crossing the same 40 acre draw that is supplying the water. Not that money is not an issue, but I am not going to let it be the reason to not do the land bridge. I am more concerned with functionality, safety, and appearance. Will certainly tackle this issue w my NRCS guy at our next meeting. I know its difficult not seeing the property but I really appreciate all advice/opinions etc. thanks a lot guys
