The Golden Gate Bridge (Highway 101 North) links San Francisco with Marin County. Before its completion in 1937, the bridge was considered unbuildable because of foggy weather, 60-mile-per-hour winds and strong ocean currents sweeping through a deep rugged canyon below.
The first exit on the Marin side of the bridge, Vista Point, provides outstanding views of the San Francisco skyline. Other vantage points include the Toll Plaza and Visitors Center (before crossing the bridge), Fort Point (under the bridge) and the Marin Headlands (the last exit in Marin County before crossing the bridge.
