The Hogback

I didn't understand what I was driving on for the first few hundred feet.  The realization that it was a two-lane road with drop off to canyons on both sides got my adrenaline going.  The big curve at the end really threw me.  Until going back to look for any YouTube videos on that section of highway I didn't realize it had a name - The Hogback.

In Different Perspectives I mentioned Utah Highway 12 so thought I'd provide you with the visuals of The Hogback, situated between the small towns of Escalante (pop. 800) and Boulder (pop. 200).

The first video is done by drone.  The second is from a car driving from Boulder to Escalante (we were driving in the opposite direction).  Enjoy.
