Bill H

Cool bridge, nice drive

Shaun Spence

What an amazing bridge. Probably in my top 3 bridges list of all time. Side note - didnt know Washington had a town called Megler.

Matt Bowen

Make Sure to drive across the bridge even if you aren't headed to the other side. So cool

Augustin Boyd

Beautiful scenery going from Astoria Oregon to Washington State over the Columbia River, during the summer time see whales Pelicans seals and of course the salmon running in sturgeon fishing

April Harrison

Ossi Boy

Is really fun to drive over the bridge by bike. Caution can be very windy.

Alex Morgan

Definitely a bridge. Bridgey McBridgeface. Bridgey Jones Diary. Bridgey Betterton.

Amy May

Longest bridge I ever drove on

Laura Lettunich

The bridge has a great guy in a white truck that picks up things and helps if a car gets stuck on the bridge. I've never had to wait more than 10 mins for any problem on that bridge

WooSung Jung

Huge bridge between Oregon and Washington. I enjoyed wide view of columbia river and pacific ocean.

Janet Pogue

Make a point of going over this bridge. It's so well worth the drive. Beautiful views of Astoria and the docks. We were lucky enough to come on the day with a massive cruise ship moored near the bridge. It gave us nice views of the cruise ship, too.

Nice, very long bridge

Jeroen van den Eijkhof

Great view on a nice day, Dismal Nitch is a nice rest stop to view the bridge from (Washington side)

Robert Haag

Now that the construction is done it's a lot better of an experience.

It's a bridge? ... wasn't bad wasn't great ... it was a bridge

Kelly Gregoire

Scared me to death because I'm afraid of bridges however it is beyond beautiful.

Iris Mueck

This is one of the longest bridge on our tour. Way back in 2005 we went down the hwy 101 from Seattle to San Francisco by bicycle. We had a wonderful time on so many places. We liked most the bridges because of the views. Some of them are real nice bridges. Sometimes the shoulder could be wider.

Fang Hsu

We visited Oregon in late June and this bridge was the one of the many nice attractions around Astoria. You can get a great view of the bridge from the top of Astoria Column.

K Rowland

Great views both from and off the bridge

Mariko Nicoletti

Spantastic

Randy Lau

It's a pretty surprising suspension bridge linking Washington and Oregon which is often missed because everyone usually takes I5. To go this route it'll take around 1.5 hours out of your way to get there. But it's an interesting experience it ascends towards the Oregon side to let ships go underneath. Do it once, but then skip it for future commutes if you want to go straight to Portland or Seattle.

Like the view!

Shirley Steele

Up into the sky we go! Great structure and interesting to photograph! Thanks for taking us to one more state on our list! Worth the drive across.

Ravyn Dunbar

Love this bridge!!

roxie smith

Imagine that.....I drive across this bridge at least 3 times a week and I make it to the other side every time!!!

Susan Nordstrom

This beautiful bridge connects Oregon and Washington. In rain or sunshine, at sunrise or sunset this bridge is great to photograph. It is an easy drive to either side as well. The bridge is only one lane each direction so pack some patience, there are times where it can be very busy. Enjoy the scenery as you cross. There are often ships anchored on the river, to the east that are clearly visible from the bridge.

Cycling over this bridge should be on every cyclists bucket list! What an incredible view and surreal experience being so close to the river. Pick a good weather day though as the shoulder is narrow and you don't want to blown into the traffic

We played The Cure as we drove over the bridge - it was a beautiful afternoon! The drive along the Washington Coast was quite serene and absolutely gorgeous!

Jason P

This is an incredibly long, fun bridge to drive.

Kim H

Milana M

Beautiful jus to take a drive! Sunsets especially

Marilyn Watts

Love this bridge! Not only is it the best way to get for Astoria, OR to Washington's Long Beach Peninsula, it is beautiful 4.1 mile drive across the mouth of the Columbia River.

Mary Ann Hodgson

The Astoria Megler Bridge connects the Oregon and Washington States..

Right around the town of Olympia Washington starts US 101. It heads northwest from there, and lackadaisically meanders around Olympic National Park as it begins to head south to Aberdeen. Traveling south from there you pass through Raymond, and then head towards the coast where you finally come to Long Beach and Ilwaco, Washington. Then, just a few miles south of there, you see it- The Astoria-Megler Bridge. Gateway to the Oregon Coast. At an astounding 4.1 miles long, it is the longest continuous truss bridge in North America. It crosses the Columbia River at the town of Astoria (on the Oregon side) and is about 14 miles east of the mouth of the Columbia River as it empties into the Pacific Ocean. It’s one of my favourite bridges to photograph. This image is a long exposure, taken underneath the bridge on a very cloudy autumn morning, just after sunrise. The Astoria-Megler bridge is, to me, a starting point. Several times a year I drive from my home in Vancouver B.C. for a trip down the Oregon Coast and once I reach the bridge, I know I’ve finally reached the beginning of the Oregon Coast. And that’s when all the fun begins.

Matt Dillon

It was a beautiful place to photograph. Quite a cool drive too. I wasn't there to actually cross into Washington but to enjoy the bridge itself.

Rob Heidemann

such a cool bridge. Took it across to long beach. Worth the drive!

Jason Galla

Had a great visit to Astoria and it was a must to drive on the Astoria Bridge over the Columbia River to Washington and back.

Richard Armida

It looms large over the huge Columbia River. It's a wonderful ride across but it takes you away from the lovely Astoria, a great place to stay and play.

Ethan Kraus

Helpful bridge.

Doug Dunn

As far as bridges goes, it's my favorite.

Rob Stevens

How do you rate a bridge...it supported the car and we travel across the mouth of the Columbia which saved us from swimming, always nice since this part of the Columbia, shipwreck's aren't unheard of. The bridge was safe and has a great roller coaster like down part perfect for winter sledding. I hope this helps. Oh and it goes from Oregon to Washington or visa versa.

Maurizio Giove

Visto da "The Astoria Column" è un gran colpo d'occhio e l'emozione è completa se lo percorri con l'automobile

Most beautiful bridge !

Jcd Dalton

The goonies house I am a big goonies fan and me and my brother visited this as it was a film we grew up with this was one of my bucket lists

Kurt Proffitt

The bridge is 4.1 miles long.

dina elliott

Drive up to the clouds and back down, beautiful drive

Anson Whiting

We played some epic soundtrack music when we crossed the bridge. It was awesome. Who cares about Washington, the bridge is what you are there for.

Blake Baker

Up close view of one of two "king" rivers in the West. Very impressive. Hard to comprehend what it would look like when Lewis and Clark saw it, before agriculture siphoned from it.

Coins With Caroline

Awesome bridge! This is on highway 101, later turns into the Golden Gate Bridge!

Danny Dog

Interesting... great view from the bridge looking down woof

Mark van Tinteren
