Spanning The Royal Gorge

We have left Denver and headed south, towards Colorado Springs. This is the highest suspension bridge in Colorado, completed in 1929, about 1000 feet over the Arkansas River.

You can walk over it, which we did - it is amazing and tummy-dropping. They also have a tram, zip-lines etc.

The tiny specks are people.

Thanks, as always, for taking time to visit. Much appreciated. :)

Wow That's quite amazing. It seem similar to New River Gorge bridge in WV. I know grown men who are afraid to drive across it! LOL! The Royal Gorge is 100 feet higher, but New River Gorge bridge is 500 feet longer. I can't even imagine what it took to build either of them.

What an awesome capture! Are those little specks people on the bridge? I could not walk over for all the tea in China!

You are very brave, I would not be able to walk over that. Must've been an amazing view.

Wonderful capture. It looks so tiny from your pov.

[Lou Ann]

This is such a great bridge. I’ve not seen it from your perspective, it doesn’t look as intimidating as it is when you are on it.

[Taffy]

Wow, wow, wow -- and so impressed you walked it! So far behind, I didn't even realize you were heading out there.

[Rosie Kerr]

@taffy I have been "vanished" for a few weeks, dealing with life, so there was no warning to be had.

[Kathy]

Not sure I have the courage to walk over it, especially if it moved the slightest bit.
