The SkyBridge at Gatlinburg's SkyLift Park is America's longest suspended pedestrian bridge.  Thousands upon thousands of people take the journey across it each year.  Now, they are bringing about a new addition to allow even more ways to enjoy the view.

Coming in the Fall they will be adding an interactive SkyTrail and it will be the very first one in Gatlinburg.  They also announced they are adding 15 feet of extra glass to the bridge.  It did have just 15 feet total.  Now I am going to have to hold my breath a little longer LOL.

LOOK: Stunning vintage photos capture the beauty of America's national parks

Today these parks are located throughout the country in 25 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The land encompassing them was either purchased or donated, though much of it had been inhabited by native people for thousands of years before the founding of the United States. These areas are protected and revered as educational resources about the natural world, and as spaces for exploration.
