Royal Gorge Bridge, Canon City, CO

The Royal Gorge Bridge is something out of the Jetsons! I remember the drive being quite, out in the wild, and feeling lost. Then out of nowhere at the end of a very long road, I find this beauty. A park that features a zoo, a suspension bridge proclaimed to be one of the highest in the world, an aerial tram over the valley, a zip line over the Arkansas River, one of the world's steepest incline railways, and a skydive structure. This park didn't scream out brand name amusement park, but without a doubt, their mission was to amuse!  I'll never forget walking across the wooden bridge looking down 1,200 feet to my death!
