Mount Adams and the Fred G. Redmon Memorial Bridge

A snow capped Mount Adams in Central Washington and a view of the Yakima Valley on a beautiful but cloudy day was captured from the Selah Creek Rest Area along Interstate 82.

Mount Adams is in the center and I was unable to see Mount Rainier further to the right from this spot due to the clouds on the horizon

The image also features the Fred G. Redmon Memorial Bridge or Selah Creek Bridge which, I read was the longest concrete arch bridge in the United States when it was built in 1971.

This image offers a better view of the bridge and the valley

I would have enjoyed finding a closer vantage point to photograph the bridge but I was on a tight schedule.
