Our roadtrip yesterday included a stop at Kinzua Bridge State Park. This is the place that used to be the site of the world's highest railroad viaduct. A tornado knocked it down in 2003.
It was actually pretty neat to see the remains of the twisted steel girders and the still-bare and gnarled trees. 
I have to admit that I was a little bummed that you couldn't walk out onto the bridge any further, though. It would have been cool (and scary as hell) to stand out there.

What an interesting place. I love all the shots you got. There are really some beautiful fall colors there right now.
Very cool! Nature is amazing and scary.
That is a steep bridge!!! I wouldn't have gotten close to the edge... yikes!! ;)
Oh wow, I cna't believe how beautiful your area is already!!! Love the look of these with the metal against nature.
Oh yeah, that is one cool place! and the fall colors just make it that much more interesting.
I had to smile at your "words to live by"! I am a HUGE west side story fan...now that song is in my head :)
Wow, and they just left it there? Kids must love finding ways to climb all over that thing. With the colors of the changing leaves, these are beautiful photos.
Wow...that's some crazy destruction. All that color in the middle of it really tells a story.
Awesome shots, I just love the beautiful colors!!!
Wow, that is really cool, Amy. Especially with all that pretty fall color around the destruction.
Wow, it is crazy what the wind can do to metal! Scary. I do love the contrast between the beautiful fall colors and the twisted metal!
That is such a cool place. The wreckage just looks beautiful here.
