The first run of the 2011 New River Train passes under the historic New River Gorge Bridge during Bride Day 2011. Once a year, the bridge is closed and people are permitted to base jump from the unique structure that stands tall at an impressive 876 feet. With temperatures in the 60's and a beautiful day in the gorge, there was an impressive 102,000 people present at the time of this image. If one observes carefully, spectators can be seen on the bridge above.
This is dedicated (with permission) to the skilled and gifted photographer - Chase Gunnoe - who regularly posts and is on staff with RP. I believe he deserves a gallery showcasing his remarkable photos. This is for you Chase! (More great photos to come!)
