Aptly Named: Hell's Canyon

We decided to drive up the little traveled section of Hell's Canyon this morning.  I drove.  We had such a great experience a couple days earlier but this was not my cup of tea.  However I must say, Cheryl enjoyed the 41 mile trip. 
Started on very narrow blacktop on a winding ledge above the river.  Then it turned to gravel, then one lane.  All the time on a narrow ledge 50 to 500 feet above the water.  Think mountain roads with no guard rails or markings.  Yeah. We went slow, but steady, and did just fine.  But when it got really high as we climbed out of the Canyon I was praying. Great day.
