Morning Magic at the New River Gorge Bridge

Posted on April 29, 2021 by Sherman Cahal
It’s been said that without the trees, mountains, fogs, or rains, the sun cannot create its own magic. On this mystical morning, the fog enveloping the New River Gorge Bridge was picture-perfect but I knew its time was short. Within minutes of taking these aerials, the thick fog had disappeared, replaced by a wide expanse of crystal clear skies.
 
The New River Gorge Bridge carries US Route 19 over the New River near Fayetteville, West Virginia. It is the largest arch bridge in the Western Hemisphere and the second-highest crossing in the United States.
