Lovers of both scenery and structures will find this lookout enjoyable. It is on the eastern end of the Moyie Canyon Bridge and affords a fine view of it, a tall and long bridge - 464 feet tall and 1223 feet long. It carries Highway 2 over the Moyie River just east of the little town of Moyie. To the north is the Moyie River snaking its way up the canyon with either the Selkirk or the Monashee Mountains in the background (not certain which - maybe even the Purcells) and the Moyie River Hydro dam in the foreground. Lots to gaze at here.. Also, there are some informative informational signs on the bridge, the canyon, the river and the dam at the pullout.
