The Foresthill Bridge is reputed to be the 3rd highest bridge in the US and is the tallest in California. It was built to span Auburn Lake, the reservoir that would have backed up into the North and Middle Fork canyons of the American River behind the Auburn Dam, if it had ever been built. The dam project was abandoned and the bridge now spans the North Fork canyon, some 730+ feet above the river.

The Golden Gate Bridge if you're measuring it by overall height (the twin towers are 750 ft. above sea level, and about 1,125 ft. from the sea floor).
The Foresthill Bridge if you're measuring it by the roadway height (730 ft. above the ground)

Do you measure from the base to the tip of the structure or are we taling above sea level?
