Last year . . . my wife suggested we continue driving on the "Scenic Byway" on Highway 12. That sounded interesting.

Yes, it was scenic, but that Hogsback stretch of ridge line wasn't pleasant at all. It's a narrow ridge with sheer drops on both sides of the road and no guardrails. Not my cup of tea.
Wow. I can't imagine towing a trailer on that road. Our 45' toy hauler would have been over the line most of the time on that twisty road. Good for you though.
You guys have me a little freaked out now. We have a 33' MH towing a jeep and we planned on taking 12 all the way through. After Escalante, I was going to take 12 to 24 and up to 70 to get to Moab. Is this safe? Should we plan a different route? Where's the bad part?
