The new bridge they're building to cross that canyon is pretty cool too. Its not every day, these days, where you can see a brand new suspension bridge being build from up close!Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would do it again. Wind is a bit easier to find in the western most playa's like Racetrack Playa . It used to be fun years ago before the Park Service started getting WAY too overprotective... Trouble is getting to a lot of the dry Pleistocene lakebeds is not the easiest undertaking and many of them are closed because idiots abused them.

Its not every day, these days, where you can see a brand new suspension bridge being build from up close! I just downloaded the latest version of Google Earth and noticed the pictures taken of the dam and new bridge were taken just recently. You can clearly see the approaches on both sides and some support columns already built.

slj678 0 #38 January 18, 2010 Quote Seriously? When I was at A&M all I could afford to do for a big trip is drive to Big Bend. I slept in my truck and ate MREs for the 5 days I was there! I turn 30 this year. My wife and I have very good jobs and I still haven't been to Vegas. You suck! haha yeah thats why you haven't seen me out at the dropzone lately, working my ass off and saving a lot of money. But I should be out soon since I'm back now anyways And thanks for the ideas guys, the zipline and land yachting are great, any other things?"I didn't know they gave out rings at the holocaust" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
