The High Steel Bridge is a remarkable structure located in Mason County, Washington, United States. It's not only an engineering marvel but also a scenic attraction nestled amidst the lush forests of the Pacific Northwest. This impressive bridge spans the picturesque Skokomish River Gorge, offering visitors breathtaking views of the surrounding natural beauty.

Originally constructed in the 1920s as a railway bridge, the High Steel Bridge now serves as a pedestrian and vehicle bridge, providing access to remote areas for outdoor enthusiasts, hikers, and photographers. Its towering height of approximately 420 feet (128 meters) above the river below adds to the sense of awe and adventure for those who cross it.

For thrill-seekers and photography enthusiasts alike, the High Steel Bridge offers a unique opportunity to capture stunning vistas from its lofty vantage point. Visitors can marvel at the rugged terrain and pristine wilderness that characterizes this part of the Pacific Northwest. While the bridge itself is a year-round attraction, accessing it may require navigating unpaved roads, so it's advisable to check local conditions and prepare accordingly before planning a visit.
