Coming down a 7 mile long steep trail with a 3,000 foot drop from a high elevation plateau (near my home) on the Western Slope of Colorado. Photo was taken in early Fall of 2019 on a trip to view the seasonal change of colors.
This extremely narrow, rocky, steep dirt road hugs the side of a cliff which is shown in the top right background of the photo. It hugs it once again immediately around this tame looking switchback which was blown out of the side of the cliff. My wife guided me along by foot in the narrowest of the top sections, but in most sections the PW's tires stayed within 1.5 to 2 feet of the edge, while I hugged the passenger side always a bit too close against the opposite side of the cliff wall. As usual on our shelf roads all I see from the PW cab is looking straight down while she constantly informs me that I got plenty of tire space left on the edge and so just move a little closer to it.
There's a large warning sign prior to entry and a small memorial on the side of a cliff section to those who died driving off of it. Beautiful views as is normal up on these plateaus, mesas, and flat top mountains.
