From how professionally looking it appeared I assumed it was forest service, but I didn't see it being installed, so who knows for sure.

Original post said 2 things:
- In the summer I could, and probably will, just take off my shoes and carry my bike across.
- Any crazy thoughts for how to cross a river on my commute?

Did you know you can order boulders online?

Lol...I mean...I'm not saying any of this is a particularly good idea. I wouldn't cross a stream with a muddy bottom even in waders, after years in the boundary waters I can tell you, you never know where you might step into something and get stuck.

It's certainly not a good plan for a steam of much depth but I'm just an internet poster, not an engineering crew.
