How it got its name.
The narrows. Those upright rocks line the left side of the drop-off.
The narrows with a car on it and the right side drop-off.
Looking down at the river you can’t get to from here.
I’m so glad we are not here with any children.
See Shafer Road? Coming down the far hill, crossing the middle of the picture and leaving in the lower right?
Dave spent days asking everyone he thought might know about the advisability of him driving this in our Honda CR-V. He was told it is not a technical road, that it gets a bit chunky in places so you have to be careful that sets of tires go the same way at the same time, that it’s expensive to get towed out of there, and that if he got through the bottom 2 1/2 miles he should be OK. He decided not to try it this trip. I think the next time we come here he’ll try to rent a Jeep. That was my suggestion.

In 1976 I was out there with a buddy on our motorcycles (Honda Gold Wings) we saw the road and decided that we had to go down there. Check with a Ranger and asked if we could do it on motorcycles and she said of course, she thought that we had dirt bikes. I would love to do it again but not in anything other then a jeep and preferably not mine. If I recall right it took us about 3 to 4 hours to come out the other end of the road. We made a lot of stops, and we did about $200 damage to each bike, just cosmetic stuff to the chrome covers and such, but it was worth it.
