Colorado River at Navajo Bridge

Colorado River at Navajo Bridge
On our way to Grand Canyon we followed Highway 89 through Marble Canyon. Between the towns of Jacob Lake and Bitter Springs the highway crosses the Colorado River over the Navajo Bridge. The bridge was built 1993-1995 and stands side-by-side with an older bridge built from 1925-1927 and which was at the time the largest steel span bridge in the world. The older bridge, too light for modern traffic, is now only a pedestrian bridge providing wonderful views of the Colorado River 467 feet below. The bridge was built in the 1920's because the only crossing of the Colorado for 800 miles was Lee's Ferry. More information about the bridges can be found at the National Parks website: www.nps.gov/places/navajo-bridge.htm.
