    It's a never-ending battle: Seventeen iron workers and 38 painters constantly fight rust and renew the international orange paint on The Golden Gate Bridge's 1.7-mile span.

    Coming from out of town??? Bring a jacket....even if it's the hottest day of summer.

    Driving on the bridge is nothing spectacular. Find a place to get a good view near the beaches and take a picture instead.

    Is the Golden Gate Bridge structurally sound enough to withstand an earthquake? Can anyone survive jumping OFF the longest suspension bridge in the world?

    Throw on a jacket and bike across the bridge, stopping in Sausalito for some beer and ice cream before ferrying back to the city. A perfect date for the outdoor enthusiast. #vday

    Bike across the bridge and down to Tiburon. Then catch the ferry back to the city. Pack lunch, snacks and water.

    The bridge is International Orange, not red. Annoy your kids by insisting on it being the correct colour name.

    Backpacking? Set out every piece of gear you own - then pack half of it. Walking across the Golden Gate Bridge in June? Pack it all.

    It can get very windy and cold on the bridge. If you decide to walk on it, be sure to bring a jacket or a coat.

    Lots of people running on bridge, watch out for small objects that may fall off the bridge and be lost forever
