A drone photograph looking northeast through the Eagle River canyon near Red Cliff, Colorado. A green cantilevered steel arch bridge dominates the center of the frame, its double arches rising from the canyon floor while U.S. Highway 24 runs across the deck above. Beneath the arch, a two-lane road curves through the canyon alongside former railroad tracks, both threading between steep canyon walls of layered sedimentary rock. A massive striated rock spire anchors the left side of the frame, warm ochre and rust tones in its exposed face. Dark conifers line both canyon walls and the ridgelines beyond. A snow-dusted mountain peak sits in the center distance beneath a deep blue sky. Power lines cross the upper right portion of the frame.
"Silver to Green"
Almost 30 years in #Colorado and this view still stops me cold. This bridge is known as the Red Cliff Bridge, the Silver bridge and the Green Bridge.
