Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge

This guide to the Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge in Vancouver starts with the log crossing that came before it, then the 1912 toll bridge a streetcar line made possible, when visitors paid a dime to sway fifty metres above the creek. It follows the bridge through disrepair, closure and free rebuilding, and turns to the canyon underneath, where more than twenty people have died in the water over the past quarter century. Look down before you cross, and notice how much faster the creek moves than it looks from above.
