    Super cool to see. I actually tandem BASE jumped off this bridge with Sean Chuma, but it just as fun to watch people jump too! Park at the visitors center for easy access.  more »

    This is a beautiful bridge (underneath)! As we were driving over it we saw a couple of base jumpers on the bridge. We stopped in the scenic outlook parking and walked down to the steps. The gorge is GORGEOUS!! Beautiful waterfalls, rocks, river! So glad we stopped for a few minutes to enjoy it.
  • By Michael E Hattaway
    Visitor center with good information and recommendations. Beautiful valley with Snake River belie Perrine Memorial Bridge. Easy access free parking with a walk out vantage point of the bridge. Worth the stop if only to Chronicle the Perrine Memorial Bridge.
