        Looks like a great motorcycle road in the summer but probably not in the winter unless I had something like a WRX with studded winter tires. (that sounds fun)

            Thats a road carved into the side of a cliff. I dunno man. I would have to psyche myself up for it. Ive been on some pretty white knuckle mountain drives in this state. but I hear that drive is a real doozy. I think its like a 3 or 4 hour drive. On the edge of a cliff.

              we have some somewhat similar roads around the area where i am from. areas of no guard rails and some are 2-4 lanes. they shut most of them down in the winter time though. not quite as high in elevation where you are but still enough to kill you or to be a huge challenge to pull someone out of.

              crazy story down the road from where i grew up. their was a really bad car accident up the mountain and one of the rescue squads responding to the call was trying to beat an oncoming train. well they hit the tracks way to fast and jumped the ambulance over the side of the cliff. that was probably 20 or more years ago and the top of the ambulance is still at the bottom to this day.

                    I'd drive it in the summer time, but now way would I be a passenger lol. Especially with how some of the people I know drive.

                      The thing about it is, rocks fall from above. Cars have been squashed by falling rocks. Thats as scary as driving along a cliff. It doesnt take a very big rock to smash your car flat as a pancake
