This is a very nice spot to stop to stretch your legs and let the geopup out. We are very glad it was not summer. Today was beautiful. We took a drive from Las Vegas to Hoover Dam and took the sidetrip to this cache. This is our first cache in Arizona. WOOHOO!!!
TFTC.

Thought we had passed it when we saw a white bridge going to what seemed like nowhere high above the Highway but soon we came to the right bridge. Stopped to take a photo, check the date and eat an icecream from the Big Old Rollin Turd of an RV which was nice out here in the hot sun.

Grabbed today after visiting Hoover Dam. Passed it earlier last week when returning from the South Rim but couldn't remember the logging requirements. Will send the date by e-mail and post the pictures as soon as my phone recovers from the heat (115F at last check). Too hot to hike around, but a nice cache and location; would like to come back when it is a bit cooler to look around. In Vegas for our 30th anniversary and last time I was in Vegas before that was 1998 - maybe we will come back for our 50th. TFTC!!

As we were visiting the Hoover Dam, this was our only chance of logging a cache in Arizona so we drove over the bypass bridge and came along here. There were a couple of cars in the parking lot but no sign of the occupants, so I don't know if they were hiking the trail (it was a bit hot for that lark!) TFTC Big Grin

We had taken a day-trip to Hoover Dam from our room in Vegas, but I wanted to drive across the new bridge, just because we could, and as long as we were here, and so close to this cache, I figured that we should look for it. Went right by the way to it on the first pass, and almost missed it the second time, but I realized that what looked like nothing much was really the right way. Got here easily after that Smile Read the plaques and such, and thought that, if it were 20 degrees cooler, a hike would have been nice, but it wasn't going to happen today. Have to come back here in February or March, see if the flowers are blooming. Stumbled across the answer to the question, although we had pictures, too. Thanks for getting us here! Learning about local history always makes our trips more enjoyable Cool

FWIW, there is a physical cache (GC4388) along US 101 a dozen miles or so west of Santa Barbara, that is at a bridge very much like this one, and from the same general time period. We adopted it when the original CO moved to Oregon. Check it out if you are ever out that way.

Stopped and looked around here.

Thanks for the fun.

This gave us an excuse to cross the border after visiting Hoover Dam. I think we hit 100 degrees! TFTVC!

As I was walking up some other cachers had already arrived. I got the required date then stood around and chatted with them for awhile. I'm from Oregon and they are from Iowa and it turned out we both knew TheBlueFox from Washington. The caching world is getting smaller and smaller. Thanks for getting me to stop as I usually fly right by. Email sent. TFTC

This was the fourth day of working our way out West from Florida to do the Alien Run ...

We are trying to make real good time, but you just have to stop and do-a-few easy ones on the way, right?? Wink

AND ... we met another cacher here (LEC57), and we traded pictures at the spot.
(You can ALWAYS recognize a fellow addict.!)

Thanks for the quickie,

This is Aussie Mark on the bridge in Arizona. We travelled from Las Vegas to do this cache then we had to head back thru on our way up north. Thanks for the trip. Loved our brief time in Arizona.

US11. It was so hot out here. A family was thinking about doing the arch walk, they ere mad ! I hope they were OK. The old bridge is a good spot to see the new road rushing past. Thanks.
