The Foresthill Bridge over the North Fork American River, northeast of Auburn, California, is the highest bridge in California, with a road deck that’s 730 feet (or 220 meters) above the river.
The steel cantilever bridge, also known as the Auburn-Foresthill Bridge or the Auburn Bridge, is situated some 35 miles (or 56 kilometers) northeast of Sacramento.
Opened in 1973, the bridge carries both pedestrian and road traffic.
