The two RV Gypsies stopped at the Visitor Center to view The New River Gorge Bridge and surrounding area. The back deck offered a 2-mile view southward of the gorge with one of the world's oldest rivers at the bottom. When the two RV Gypsies were here in 2011, the Visitor Center and viewing area did not exist.

Below: Photos of the bridge and The Catwalk under the roadway where the two RV Gypsies are getting ready to walk for the Second Time. The first time being ten years ago in 2011. Two pages of very different photos are posted there, with a link back to here at the bottom of the second page. This does not have to be a linear site. Both sites are worth visiting.

Then the two RV Gypsies drove to The Tunney Hunsaker Bridge to get a different perspective of the New River Gorge Bridge.

Below: Karen Duquette stood in the middle of The Tunney Hunsaker Bridge to get photographs of the New River Gorge Bridge where they will soon walk on The Catwalk for their second time. In 2011, the river was much clearer and the reflection of the arch on the bridge actually made an image of a circle in the water. Those photos are also posted on this website.

Then the two RV Gypsies drove the road that circled all around the bridge to get some different views of the New River Gorge Bridge. Unfortunately, a tour bus got behind them and kept beeping their horn at them, so they could not photograph the views they really wanted.
