Kalama River Bridge

Dan:

Kalama is on I-5 approx. 35 miles north of Vancouver. The bridge can be seen from I-5 just north of the large grain dock at the port of Kalama. Here's an aerial photo of the location - the bridge is adjacent to the little piece of the industrial park that sticks out on the east side:

The I-5 exit at the top of the photo is (I believe) Kalama River Rd. Both the north and south sides of the bridge are easily accessible from the freeway frontage roads.

Trains are traveling at track speed here so be very careful and use a faster shutter speed than I did.
