I remember the single lane hairpin turn going up to Saline from Grand Fond
Since I shut the island down, I thought it would be a good idea to get this necessary roadwork out of the way.
You'll thank me when I re-open the island.
:wink2:
hopper, I'm having trouble placing a route going up to saline from grand fond. can you help me?
I'm thinking Saline to Lurin and it is still there.
The most significant upgrade to that turn was roughing up the concrete to aid in traction.I'm thinking that too. That road is still challenging even after all of the upgrades. When we first came here in the early 90's that road was little more than a driveway, and you sweated when anyone who was coming from the other direction.

Absolutely, and it still can be a lot of fun after a rain, especially if you like driving sideways.

One of my earliest SBH memories was "trying" to get up that hill/hairpin turn in a Smart car after a rain.
