We have a 39' Class A motorhome, so I won't be attempting any part of the Cabot Trail in it. I am considering finding an RV site in or near Baddeck and making day trips from there. From Baddeck how far could I go in either direction, clockwise or counterclockwise, before I hit the white-knuckle portion? I could drive in that direction until I reached that part, then turn around. Please keep in mind that what is a piece of cake to some is absolutely terrifying to others.
I would sure like for my wife to see as much of this area as possible, but I also fully understand her apprehension. Several years ago while visiting Colorado Springs, we decided to see just how far up Pikes Peak we could get before she decided it was time to turn around. It's nineteen miles from the entrance to the top of Pikes Peak. We made it all the way to mile marker one before she said "Turn around. Now!"
These fears are irrational; however, they are very real to those experiencing them.
Thanks much for all the input.
