Zoid,  Is that area part of (or near) the Blue Ridge mountain area? It's breathtakingly beautiful country and your description of the razor-edge road sparked an OLD memory from about … 35 years ago …. a while back, along the sheerest drop I ever got to spend about 30 miles next to. MUCH of it was cable guard rail along an edge too steep for trees to grow on, so you had a vista view that you didn't dare look out over. When my white knuckles saw the sign for 'Hungry Mother State Park', I knew somebody else had the same thoughts about the road that I was having. I sold that car years later, with my fingerprints still in the steering wheel.
BEAUTIFUL area  , but somebody else can do the driving.
