Mike Brewer - Bridge Day Bridge Day is West Virginia's largest single-day festival, held annually every third Saturday in October on the New River Gorge Bridge in Fayette County, West Virginia. This is the only day each year thousands of spectators can walk across the bridge and watch BASE jumpers get their chance to huck themselves into 876 feet of New River Gorge vertical. Are there antics? Always. Here is a taste of the action from Mike Brewer’s perspective. CRUX Hayduke 240 Snatch 42” #sqrl
