Foresthill Bridge
Sep 9, 2007
Fred in Auburn says:
The Foresthill Bridge is reputed to be the 3rd highest bridge in the US and is the tallest in California. It was built to span Auburn Lake, the reservoir that would have backed up into the North and Middle Fork canyons of the American River behind the Auburn Dam, if it had ever been built. The dam project was abandoned … and the bridge now spans the North Fork canyon, some 730+ feet above the river.
We got out today to relax and watch the kids play in the water. It was great!
