vertekijker Posted January 9, 2012 Share #9381 Posted January 9, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi aarflot, I too am a great friend of Dr.Google but this looks like most mountain descents in that area. Did something maybe happen there? ----------- Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

vertekijker Posted January 9, 2012 Share #9382 Posted January 9, 2012 As for the exact location, could be at 43°51′48.53″N 7°25′55.83″E? ------------------ Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertekijker Posted January 9, 2012 Share #9383 Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) Just teasing! Could it be road D2204 which ascends to the Col de Braus in the Alpes Maritimes (43°51′48.53″N 7°25′55.83″E)? ----------- Frans Edited January 9, 2012 by vertekijker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Van der Herten Posted January 9, 2012 Share #9384 Posted January 9, 2012 Even the electricity line (left of the photo) seems to be in the right emplacement. It seems you got it, Frans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertekijker Posted January 9, 2012 Share #9385 Posted January 9, 2012 Yes, Dirk, that electricity line was the give away... Let's await aarflot's final verdict. ----------- Frans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aarflot Posted January 9, 2012 Share #9386 Posted January 9, 2012 (edited) Frans, you are entirely correct! I have been driving quite a lot in the area, and even though there are lots of turns, I would not call this a typical ascend . The reason why I thought it would be too easy, is that after I posted the photo, I found that the place actually is used to illustrate "hairpin turn" on Wikipedia: Hairpin turn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Nevertheless, well done, over to you!
