Duck!
We took a chance on a narrow gravel road. We saw a cache on the GPS and decided civilization lay ahead, as long as we didn't have to pass another vehicle we should be safe. It was a shortcut! Then we read the description on the cache page (GCGAX2):
Years ago, my wife and I were exploring this really cool gravel road that winds along the Mississippi River for a few miles and offers some beautiful views that inspire a sense of adventure. The biggest adventure (for us) was when we reached the halfway point of this narrow cliffside road in our big, old motorhome and suddenly Anne looked ahead with big round eyes and said "Now what are we gonna do?!", to which I replied...
And, a slight pause, a holding of breath, before we squish beneath the overhang. If an RV can do it we can too. But, do you see anyplace to park to get to the cache? No? We didn't either. So if you decide to go for it can you sign the log for the bandits too?
Yikes! Now that would make anyone a little nervous!!
Now, THAT is scary :D!
You've been tagged!!
That sure looks scary! I love the macro pictures. Way cool.
Wait, so you didn't sign the log? What were the odds that someone was going
to come along? :) I guess the real problem is that it's winter. No snow on
the ground would've made it easier. Maybe you can go back in the summer...
Is this the road to Yankee Boy Basin? Great shot. If it is, you should to
there when the wildflowers are blooming.
When I first started driving truck, I found a shortcut to a chicken
processors. It looked good on a map. It looked just like your picture in
person. No, a semi will not fit. No, I couldn't back up. I had to wake
up my husband. It was not a fun time for all.
Sandy, That would be bad! It sounds like your road was similar to ours in
another way as well, no sign at the end of hte orad warning you? ROad goes
on about 4 miles with no way to get off, unless you want to go down the
cliff.
Jessica - we were scared someone would come along and just wanted to get
off the road asap. :) I think we could reached the cache from the car but
I was more worried about the picture and worried about other cars.
Too cool!!
Eek, scary! You know, I really do want to try this geocaching thing some
day!
If I drove an RV, I'd probably turn back! I'm not one to take chances. My
husband on the other hand, would be full steam ahead. The scenery is
beautiful.
wow that is one low rise. beatiful picture though!!!
What? No height limitation warnings?
It is a pretty photo, though, Lisa :-)
Wow! Looks dangerous! Gorgeous picture though!!!
Funny! But I love those 'challenging' caches like that.
WOW...that is CRAZY but what a gret picture!!!!
That is certainly off the beaten path! I love your shots...as always.
I love the photo. I have been under some passes like that going through
the mountains, but usually the road is wider. Looks like quite the
adventure.
Christine the road is so narrow with a cliff on one side and rocks up the
other, you can't turn around. You would have to back up, 2 miles of
backing.
I agree with others.....scary but a wonderful photo!
