God’s Bridge

Horsepasture River is an eighteen-mile Wild and Scenic River that begins in Jackson County, North Carolina, meanders through the Jocassee Gorges, and ends by dumping into Lake Jocassee.

We walked across in awe and were also thankful that someone had built the bridge so we wouldn’t have to ford this by swimming—which I couldn’t have done, or with a boat—which we didn’t have.
