I'm about 99% sure I've been on that road in pic #2!

But hell, it's a year out so there is still hope right?

Hell yeah, and I'm going anyway!

wow thats crazy. I dont think i would risk it. Anyway this trip is a possibility. Very small chance but maybe. It would be around a 16hour drive though.

Yes it exists! the road is Rated 5 (Extreme), that particular stretch is known as "Pucker Hill", the road is Black Bear Road/Pass, it it periodically 'fixed' (cleared of rock slides) with a bulldozer, the road is between Ouray/Silverton and Telluride. You Tube has several good videos of this road. It is one of the more extreme roads due to the many thousands of feet down vertical cliffs. The road is a bit wider at this point now, but still not for the faint of heart. I though the picture was great! It also is near where i will be this summer...
