This bridge links Oregon and Washington states across the Columbia River in the Columbia Gorge. I recently crossed this bridge after my Total Solar Eclipse adventure to Oregon last month

The bridge is the crossing point of the Pacific Crest Trail which goes from the Mexican border to the Canadian border at Manning Park

This bridge is Cantilever Truss constuction and was built in 1926, the current toll is $2.00USD

Currently, The nearby interstate freeway in the gorge is closed due to a wildfire, supposedly caused by kids with fireworks, now thousands of burned trees need removing and slope stabilization to be carried out before the road can reopen
