It’s a bridge. It’s big. It’s orange.

Best Orange Bridge in Nelson!!

Great bridge. While I can't confirm the compatibility of other makes and models, it handled my 2014 2-door jeep wrangler very well.

The Big Orange Bridge is the first notable landmark you'll see when coming into Nelson from either the north or the south. Most pictures you see are taken from the south, so I thought I'd give you a different perspective, taken from the RCMP grounds on the southeast side of the bridge. Enjoy.

Okay. I've been across it several times. Not too often in recent years, but I still get to look at it every now and then. There's also something about the "split" colour for a bridge that crosses the river, and it wouldn't be the same without it. Regardless, it has a place in history.

Of all the orange bridges nearby, I can confirm they are all smaller than this. Big Orange Bridge.

One of the main visual focal points in the city.

This place is sooo peaceful.

A true Kootenay icon. Remarkable, but not in a "look at me" sort of way. Inexplicably two-toned orange, the struts and girders are beloved by all down to the pigeons below. BOB, you embrace our Kootenay Lake, like a great friend, kissing the tree-swaying slopes from shore to shore. BOB fulfills all bridge functions excellently.

Cool bridge to cross into Nelson

Cool bridge to checkout in Nelson

BOB is a beauty! And is, in fact, big and orange.

It was a smokey day but still very pretty view from the beach.

Beautiful bridge.
