Francis Scott Key Bridge Part 2

Yesterday I was up on a bridge again. This time it was the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore. It is a large Truss Bridge with a suspended center span. I walked the catwalks under the Truss section that you can see in the photo.



This is a photo from the first pier we were on. The main suspension span is 200 feet above the water. The pier we are on is approximately 180 feet up.





This is a shot looking down the face of the pier.




Don't worry Jen, I wasn't going to walk out over the edge....






















This is the ladder down to the main piers. About 60 feet.



















This is a view up from one of the main piers.














This is a view of the inner harbor from the bridge.




We saw this guy at one of the piers. There were 4 eggs just behind the ladder.

Now that's a high bridge. Those photos are great. So, what's the tallest bridge you've been on so far?

Dude, that has to be somewhat scary to look down from such a height!

Good to see you in a safety harness finally!

We golfing together at the men's summit?

This is crazy and awesome. That bird doesn't look so happy to have you so close to her nest.

You are a crazy man. Don't step out there like that... it makes my stomach jump... even though it's a picture.
