NAVAJO BRIDGE

In the early 1870s, the expansion of Utah's pioneer settlements reached as far north as Arizona. Thus, as early as 1873, the Lees Ferry was put into circulation to cross the waters. As traffic became heavy, construction of a bridge began in 1927. At the time, it was the highest arch in the world, 142 m above the river. It was not until 1995 that a new bridge was opened, allowing truck traffic. Today, you can park your car on the adjacent parking lot and walk on the old bridge... While contemplating the second one.
