Thanks for the video. My dad made me drive our car through there when I was learning to drive back in the early 1980's. He said, "If you can drive here, you can drive anywhere". We used to use it to go to my uncle and aunt's place in Dannevirke often when I was a kid. I remember stock trucks coming the other way on blind corners and nearly getting cleaned up by a tree sliding down the hill and onto the road in a rain storm. Wickedest road I've ever been on.
