Kootenai Falls Swinging Bridge
The Kootenai Falls Swinging Bridge in 2019
The Kootenai Falls Swinging Bridge, known to locals as just the Swinging Bridge, is a simple suspension footbridge that crosses the Kootenay River just downstream of Kootenai Falls. The bridge was first constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Great Depression, allowing the US Forest Service to better facilitate firefighter access to the forested mountains just north of the river. The bridge is open to the public and offers visitors elevated views of Kootenai Falls.
The original footbridge was destroyed during a flood in 1948. Shortly thereafter, a new footbridge was built atop a pair of concrete piers in order to overtake the historic flood stage of the river, and although the bridge was maintained and rehabilitated throughout the following decades, the bridge was rebuilt in 2019 due to its increasing popularity. The new bridge cost between $500,000 to $600,000 and was completed two months ahead of schedule.

Traveling in COVID-19 Times is hard and scary. Some places were taking precautions while others were not that interested in doing so. We had our disinfection kit everywhere we went and our routine was thorough. We can say that the best hotel that we stayed in was in Idaho, clean, safe and all personnel were using masks. Later we will be doing a Video talking about the Hotels, COVID, and safety.
