The Idaho Public Television web site describes this bridge as "lonely yet enormous." Patrick only saw two cars use the bridge while he was there.
Patrick was determined to get a better view of the bridge and beautiful surroundings.
The towers are only 140 feet tall, but the reservoir is over 500 feet deep at center span.
That's a large nest atop the tower's cable saddle.
