The Royal Gorge Bridge in Canyon City CO is truly an AWESOME sight. The bridge itself spans the Arkansas River and a canyon that is over 1,000 feet deep. We went to visit for a day trip while working in Cripple Creek and had a blast. There is an incline rail that takes you down the steep side of the canyon and you can stroll by the banks of the raging river. We also went on the arial tram that carries you across the canyon - now that one was a little scary! Then we walked the path by the woods on the canyon rim and back over the bridge. The bridge itself is not scary but it does sway in the wind, HUMMM. The views from the bridge are amazing, looking out to the mountain ranges and plateau. WOW! For more info www.royalgorgebridge.com. Post a comment and let me know if you have been there.This is the story of two innsitters traveling for work (and sometimes for fun.) Follow along as we chronicle our journeys and jobs.
