For those of you who enjoyed my little trip down memory lane you might like to see this modern video from a Belgian driver I discovered yesterday. At some point in the journey, not sure where, he is climbing the ‘ski jump’ to the Blanc. he pans the camera round to watch the wagons descending the old road down the cliff side.
For us who travelled that road before the ski jump was built it must send a few shivers down our spines when we remember that that hairy descent was 2 way.

Sorry, just realised that the video continues from where I left off earlier. Just rewind to the beginning to see what I mean.
