Base Jumpers Leap Off The Bridge

Tuesday August 29, 2006

Bridge Day is as much fun for spectators as for the base jumpers leaping off the New River Gorge Bridge and the folks rappelling off the side toward the water. You can join the throngs watching from the bridge, from rafts on the river or in the gorge, taking time out to enjoy the carnival-like atmosphere during the annual Bridge Day in Fayetteville County, WV, during fall foliage season.
