Berkshire Place Bridge

This is not a well known bridge despite being a five minute drive from downtown Pasadena and a 15 minute walk from the Rose Bowl and JPL. It crosses a beautiful rocky creek and trail.

Berkshire Place Bridge

This bridge is strangely isolated and rather unknown despite being not 10 minutes from downtown Pasadena and just walk from the Rose Bowl. It crosses a rocky creek and dirt equestrian trail. The bridge and the location are both quite beautiful.
