Rio Grande Gorge Bridge


The Rio Grande Gorge Bridge is an unexpectedly high bridge conveying US-64 over the upper reaches of the Rio Grande. The detour to the nearest alternate crossing is a 46mi adventure on unpaved roads.

The top surface of the structure isn't exactly level, and it's certainly not overbuilt. However, it looks fantastic in the fading light of a New Mexico sunset.
