taking a Single track through the national Forest part fo the ranch I hunted on there was the shortest way to Helena by over 80 miles oen way so i took it a couple times. Part of the ranch had had timber cut on it and those "pasture/timber" roads on the ranch were one tracks. one trip up they were adding in another single track. the guys that do that have a set no doubt.

Did you take that picture? I've been down engineer in a jeep and do not remember it being single track . I remember thinking I could take the duramax down this easily.

I did not, but there are quite a few areas that only have room for one vehicle.

Last week I drove the winward side of Oahu from Honolulu to the North Shore. That was easily some of the most beautiful scenery ever. One side of the road you have the large mountains where they filmed Jurassic Park then on the other side some of the most beautiful beaches and ocean water you will ever see.

Lots of great ones....I've driven most of the ones listed that are in the lower 48.....America has lots of spectacular and diverse scenery.... flag

I did the PCH and Skyline drive on a motorcycle back in the late 80's....don't think I'd do it again but the views were breathtaking.....

The highway from Artesia to Mayhill, then Cloudcroft and on to Alamogordo is a crazy ride, From the desert to the mountain beauty of New Mexico back to the desert.

My wife has corrected me a thousand times and I still can't get it right. She says it's called the "Going to the Sun Road" so maybe we're both wrong.

black bear is another, do not attempt it in a stock truck, stock jeep is even real iffy in some spots. and there is a lot of single track, go down and you may not see another vehicle (start at 550), up probably pizz off a lot of folks.
starts on 550 up around silverthorne.

Next summer I’m going to go do all 3 of those passes. That or drive from Texas over to central Commifornia and take the PCH all the way up, camping and off-roading along the way. That’ll take me about 2 weeks so I’ll have to plan accordingly.

US Hwy 36 from Hannibal MO to Denver CO. Land so flat you can see yesterday as it leaves and tomorrow before it arrives. You will understand the depth of monotony as God Intended. This is the original Pony Express road where you can feel the depth of history and ask the question "Why?" and learn why sometimes He does not answer. Or drive during the end of the corn season and truly appreciate what His Bounty looks like --again and again and again and again....
