The primary reason a wooden bridge on an old trail becomes so slippery is the growth of a slimy biofilm consisting of algae, mold, mildew, and moss. While rain alone makes wood slick, these biological organisms thrive in the damp, shaded environments typical of trails, creating a surface that can feel as dangerous as ice. You can pour π« gallon of peroxide on it but eventually it will grow back
the wood never dries in the rain seasons never gets full sun coverage. So the wood stays covered with a layer of moldy slime. extremely slippery. they all need replacing with plastic beams in the shady wooded areas.
