Description

This elevated view of the completed six bridge spans, taken from the mountainside on the south side of the river, shows the snow-covered river occupying most of the middle ground with the bridge crossing from left to right. Two spruce trees are prominent in foreground with dark forested land on the far side of the river, all under a featureless sky. Enlargement reveals the piledriver machine parked at the extreme right between the spruce tree and photo boarder.
