Description
The Astoria Megler bridge standing tall on a typical cloudy summer day. Beginning its journey in Astoria Oregon it spans the great Columbia River ending in the town of Chinook on the Long Beach Washington peninsula. During its construction was dubbed the bridge to nowhere as the peninsula was mostly unestablished. Its construction replaced the river crossing ferry. Once a year the bridge is closed to all vehicle traffic for a charity foot race across the bridge named Great Columbia Crossing. In 2022 there were 3,500 runners and walkers.
