Rio Grande Gorge Bridge

This bridge built in 1965 650 feet over the Rio Grande River where cuts a gorge through northern New Mexico west of the popular artist community of Taos. There are walkways and small porches that hang out over the gorge and every time a large vehicle drives over the bridge it vibrates just a bit.

    I'm scared to death of heights. Looks cool though. :D

    @clickiemcpete Thanks, and I understand, I do okay around heights as long as I don't get too close to the edge or the structure doesn't begin to move, like when any truck drove by. I was keeping a death grip on each camera with their straps tightly wrapped around my neck or wrist. I'm always paranoid about my camera slipping from my fingers when I'm somewhere where there's no hope for retrieval. ;-D
