On Sunday, August 9th, we went with Wendy to Royal Gorge Bridge and Park, Canon City, Colorado. (Troy, unfortulately, had Guards that weekend). On the drive over at the end of an exit ramp was Mamma deer and her little one at the end of an exit ramp. We were afraid for her as there was lots of traffic, but people were slowing down and hopefully she made it across.
Royal Gorge Bridge is the world's highest suspension bridge that only took six months to build, beginning in June 1929 and completed in November. It is breathtakingly beautiful, is 1,260 feet long, that crosses the Arkansas River.
We took the tram over first for a good viewing of the bridge and then we walked back over on the bridge.
In addition to viewing the Royal Gorge from the bridge, we rode the world's steepest inclide railway down to the bottom of the gorge.
