US 95 at White Bird Idaho

The new US-95 was built more like China builds its roads in the mountains to keep the roads straight: lots of high bridges and tunnels. Although in this case they used big cuts instead of tunnels.
These are the cuts just north of the bridge.

Look at all of the wiggles in the old US-95.
