so are you driving blind on the dirt road until you can make out something in the distance? how do you know where to travel?

our son did it a couple of yrs ago with a friend.
apparently they rented a jeep wrangler we picked their way thru the dust folowing a tour vehicle.
he said it was terrible and they were nervous about the possibility of wrecking the vehicle.

Sorry, I thought you were talking about in general, never been on this road.

you are pretty much climbing up and going down dirt trails with sharp large rocks and huge crater dips, etc. there is one part where you are going up such a steep hill you really need to gun it a bit, but want to give the tour guide enough room infront of you incase he starts to slip back...

I wish I had taken pics of the roads, but I didn't have a free hand between holding the dash & the roll bar white-knuckled!
