We left Jackson, WY and headed to Bend. Along the way we followed the Snake River.
This is a major river of the greater Pacific Northwest.
At 1,078 miles long, it is the largest tributary of the Columbia River, the largest North American river that empties into the Pacific Ocean.
The overpass photo is and "animal overpass." We have seen these in different areas as we travelled where states or in Canada, there is high fencing (metal mesh) along the highways to keep animals from coming on the road -- protects them and the drivers. So these overpasses allow the animals to cross safely to the other side of the road as they are fenced as well and covered with dirt and shrubs.
