The road winding upwards must be Stalheimskleiva, once famous for being a rather hazardous drive.

This is not a part of Hardangerfjord. The road between Voss and Stalheim continues down the Naeroydalen valley and ends in Gudvangen. This is where Naeroyfjord starts (UNESCO World Heritage). Naeroyfjord is a branch of the longest fjord in Norway, Sognefjord (204 km long). Check out www.naeroyfjord.com

Thanks! We'll fix the title in the source data and reload description.

The view from Stalheim in July 1993.

The last time I went over this those guard rails were still in place. The first time I took my kids on this route my son looked out at the canyon and said, "My gosh, is this REAL?"

2013, I think those blocks are still there. One of the more incredible places in North America, if not on earth!

this is beautiful.

Amazing!

Sweet ride!

I believe this is actually not near Creede, CO at all. A horizon this flat can only be seen near the front range in Colorado. I would guess that this is taken on US-40 climbing Mount Vernon Canyon west of Golden, CO, facing west. The hill in the center just below the horizon would then be Green Mountain south of Golden. These days, I-70 takes up most of this valley, as you can see in this shot facing uphill: www.dot.state.co.us/50anniversary/images/I70Photos/I70Mou...
