Finally, you get to the entrance to the suspension bridge.
The sign says "Five person Limit on Bridge."
Once you're across, it's kind of tight quarters for photos, but you get a good look at the magnificent second order Fresnel lens.
The best views are from the other side of the suspension bridge.
I overheard a guy saying "Why don't they just paint the roof white!"
On the way back, I stopped at the foot of the San Francisco side of the Golden Gate Bridge, whose towers were still lost in the fog.
I also grabbed a shot of the light at Fort Point. The fort is only open weekends due to the construction work overhead.
If Harbor Lights ever makes a Point Bonita LE, it's GOT to have the suspension bridge, or it's a waste of time. They did a great job on Golden Gate Bridge, the small bridge at Point Bonita shouldn't be too great a challenge.
I hope Derith's group had better weather, and hopefully someone from that group will post some photos too. But I really liked the mood of the foggy day - kind of what lighthouses are about.
