The Suspension Bridge actually takes you to the famous Train Wrecks over the Cheakamus River only since 2016. For a long time, they could only be reached by illegally crossing the rails, which are still in use. Therefore, the region decided to build a proper bridge, for the protection of hikers and nature.
