Beneath the bridge

It’s a wonderful time of the year for a photo excursion to Deception Pass. This couple opted to park on Pass Island between the bridges, then taking the stairs to an open vantage point including North Beach on Whidbey Island.

First, each provides a critical link to and from Fidalgo Island. Second, each “bridge” is actually made up of twin spans. While Deception Pass spans were completed together (Canoe and Deception) in 1935, locals will recall that […]
