Then, we went
further upstream another 15 miles to Rainbow Bridge. What an
amazing site.
This is the
dockage that the National Park Service provides at Rainbow
Bridge. From here it is a one mile walk up the valley to the
bridge.
The red line in the photo is the high water mark when the dam is
100% full. When completely full, the valley to the bridge is
flooded up to the site of the bridge.
Rainbow Bridge
The floating
ramp from the docks up the valley to the shore line. This is
continually re-positioned as the lake water level rises and
falls.
Again, please note the red line that shows the high water mark
when the lake is completely full.
