It gains 4720 feet of elevation in 12.42 miles, while including 10.5% up-grades and and 10% down-grades. That's some massive climbing and really steep roads.

That would be spectacular in an all-wheel-drive. But when I saw those cliffs I'd probably get out and walk.

Don't worry about the edges...notice that they put bales of hay to keep you from going over.
