Description
This is what's left of the Kinzua Viaduct Railroad Bridge located in Kinzua State Park, McKean County, Pa. On July 21st,2003, 2 tornadoes swept through the park, ripping up 11 of its 20 support columns, which now lay in waste in the valley below. I took this picture in early September while on vacation. To see this destruction in perspective is incredible! If you're interested in reading about it or seeing more photos of it, here is the link:

Wow, Rick ... fabulous shot. And it looks so much like it belongs there, as it is now. It's kind of grown into the landscape. That must have been a monster of a tornado.
