Spanning the Canyon

You want to see another terrifying 1910 over-the-dam route, take a look at the photo attached to this site in Google Earth. It's 1 lane, about 1/4 mile drop around a 180 curve. A young married local couple went off the west approach about 12 years back. Salmon Falls Creek Reservoir. Don't imagine that road crossing will be upgraded anytime in the next 100 years tho.
