Navajo Bridge 3

Though the canyon spanned by Navajo Bridge is called Marble Canyon at this point, this is actually part of the Grand Canyon. The Colorado River isn't quite as deep (470 feet below the bridge at this point) and the canyon isn't quite as wide as it is later on in the more well-known parts of the park.

I am in awe of the engineering and construction skills it took to build this 909-foot-long bridge; that's 3 football fields and 3.9 million pounds of steel over empty space.

Put this cross on a mug!
