Oroville Bidwell Bar Suspension Bridge (0146)

Oroville Bidwell Bar Suspension Bridge (0146)
Bidwell Bar Suspension Bridge on Lake Oroville. It was surprising to come across a suspension bridge in that location, but the canyon of the Feather River is narrow there and, before the reservoir was filled, the bridge was 627 feet above the river.

I finally got that way in Nov '19, after being turned back by a snowstorm in the early 90s! I've wondered if the construction of such an expensive bridge was part of the deal for authorizing Oroville Dam, to keep SR 162 open. Apparently this whole area was clobbered by the fires last fall.
