This is a follow up video to the Canyon Diablo Bridge video I posted in April of this year. I shot all the drone video in 4K but with the other video I posted I also had HD video I shot using a Panasonic GH2 camera so I converted all footage to HD for that video. In this video I wanted to keep everything in 4K and didn't worry about the audio and train sounds as I did in the earlier video -- I wanted you the viewer to see this in full 4K.
This video is the compilation of three drone flights and the video is unedited except for color grading and sharpening -- you see the three flights from takeoff to landing as I flew them. The very first flight I didn't start the video recording until after the drone was in the air so you miss the actual takeoff, but you do see the landing and the takeoff and landing of the other two flights.
The area is not far from US40, about 4 miles in fact, but the dirt road you take to get to the bridge is really nasty. I drove it in my 2012 Ford Focus and I was worried the whole way there and back that I'd flat and need to call for service -- that could cost several hundred dollars.
When they were building the railroad bridge, starting about 1882, a town quickly grew up to support the men working to build the bridge and the rail line leading to and from it. They did not have any lawmen at first and the town quickly developed into a very dangerous place with violence way beyond the numbers of people that lived there.
Heading east on US40 from Flagstaff Arizona you come to the "Two Guns" exit about 34 miles east of Flagstaff at exit 230 I believe. The dirt road heading to the bridge is on the north side of the exit and heads first west before turning north. From the exit to the bridge is about 4-4.5 miles and will take you 25-35 minutes.
At the south side of the exit is the abandoned Two Guns theme park and this is another place you should plan to spend a few hours exploring. There are many ruins of more modern construction and others of an older rock type of construction.
