Driving Hell’s Backbone.

Hell’s Backbone is a gravel road that was cut out through the forest back in 1933 by the Civilian Conservation Corps to connect Escalante Utah and Boulder Utah as a summer time short cut. Its a beautiful 30 to 40 mile drive through different scenery. The whole 2 hour drive on this road I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of 1933 automobile could make it up and over this road and if it did how much of a short cut could it be.
