The Bridge
There’s several bridges that factor into my Will Diaz stories. Three of them cross the Rio Grande River. Of those three, none are more spectacular than the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge. Will and Andy flew over the bridge on their way to Raton, New Mexico, and Will points it out. In the rewrite of book two, Against Flesh and Blood, Will and Jewell meet Will’s old friend Terri there. It’s not exactly…

“For me, walking in a hard Dakota wind can be like staring at the ocean: humbled before its immensity, I also have a sense of being at home on this planet, my blood so like the sea in chemical composition, my every cell partaking of air. I live about as far from the sea as is possible in North America, yet I walk in a turbulent ocean. Maybe that child was right when he told me that the world is upside-down here, and this is where angels drown. Listening to the voice of the sky, I wonder: how do we tell our tales, how can we hope to record them? I’d like to believe that deep in our bones the country people of Dakota, like poets, like monks, are, as Jean Cocteau once said of poetry, “useless but indispensable.”
― Kathleen Norris, Dakota: A Spiritual Geography

I went to see the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge in New Mexico. I also went and took pictures from the bridge. On the bridge they have crises call boxes for people to use to try and prevent jumpers.

I also went to the Sand Dunes National Park. Those dots you see in the distance are people. It’s huge.

At 650 feet above the river, The Rio Grande Gorge Bridge is the second highest bridge on the U.S. Highway System and the fifth highest bridge in the United States. During construction of the bridge in the 1960s, funding did not exist to continue the road on the other side, leading to its nickname, the “Bridge to Nowhere.”

Hwy 128 Colorado River Scenic Byway, UT (No. 3)
The gorge widens where the highway passes by Castle Valley and Professor Valley, which have been the shooting locations for many western films (including Wagon Master and Rio Grande) and television commercials. Near the east end of the valley the highway crosses Onion Creek, a stream sourced by springs that contain naturally occurring minerals that produce a strong odor in the water. At the east end of the valley the highway has a view of the Fisher Towers, a set of dark red spires. After leaving the valley, the road winds farther up the river gorge until arriving at the Dewey Bridge, named for Dewey, a nearby ghost town.
After the bridge, the road follows the northern bank of the river for a few miles then exits the Colorado River gorge. At this point the highway proceeds across desert towards the Book Cliffs to terminate at Interstate 70 (I-70) near Cisco. Cisco is a ghost town along the main line of the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad, founded as a water re-filling station for steam locomotives. The last 3 miles (4.8 km) of the road parallel the railroad and is an old routing of US-6/US-50, in use before the construction of I-70.

Passing on That Sense of Adventure to Others in Photos by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: While approaching the Rio Grande Gorge with a view to the northeast and bridge crossing. This is in northern New Mexico not far from Taos. The ridges and peaks off in the distance are of the Sangre de Cristo Range and Taos Mountains.
