The Vance Creek Bridge is the second tallest arched railroad bridge in the United States and the 18th tallest bridge overall. It’s not just the impressive stats that attract the steady stream of visitors who park their vehicles near a locked gate, ignore posted no trespassing signs and climb around numerous barriers to access the bridge. “That danger is what makes it so great,” said young_abu_dahbi, now a 21-year-old Kent, Wash., resident.

The bridge’s height and its vintage elegance makes it the perfect photographic backdrop. There’s nothing like it.Įxcept, of course, for its even taller twin, the High Steel Bridge, just a few miles away. The Vance Creek and High Steel bridges were built in 1929 by the Simpson Logging Company - the predecessor of Green Diamond.
