Glen Canyon Dam Bridge

Glen Canyon Bridge was actually constructed in California, disassembled and half of the bridge was transported to each side of the canyon. By 1959, Glen Canyon Bridge was completed permitting trucks to deliver equipment and materials for the dam and the new town of Page, Arizona.

Quite a feat of engineering. How deep is the canyon here? And how in the world did they get the two sides out there and join them?
