Returning to the United States: the US-Canada border at the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge.
Waiting to cross the Mackinac Bridge by car. Even though the walk was over by this point, and all lanes were open to traffic, it took me over an hour to cross the bridge by car, including the time waiting in traffic. It had only taken two hours to cross the bridge on foot!
Getting very close to the end of the walk now, Fort Michilimackinac, now a historical park, can be seen on the shore.
...on my left, Lake Huron. Hydrologically, Lakes Michigan and Huron should be considered a single lake.
Approaching the Lower Peninsula. On my right is Lake Michigan...
Past the south tower.
The middle two lanes of the four-lane bridge are grates, which reduce the effect of wind on the bridge. During the walk, you can look down through the grating and see the lake far below.
Now past the halfway point. The bridge is nearly 200 feet above the water at its center, but the grade is so gentle that you hardly even notice you're walking uphill for the first half of the walk.
