Having not driven the CT for about a year, but hearing that it had gotten much worse, i decided to take it on the way back from Santiago this afternoon.
And my detailed trip report is as follows:
My god it's absolutely f@cked!!
And not only is it trashed, but it happened in the space of 12 months! How??
I could just about imagine an untended mountain road getting into this state in 4 or 5 years but in only 12 months?.wtf?!
Actually, its not all bad. The north coast side is actually not so bad but after Yassica and up through Sonedor and El Lleno to La Cumbre it is almost unpassable.
I fear that in another 12 months the carritos and guaguas will no longer be plying their trade which can't be good for the local community.
And such a beautiful road. Am planning to mountain bike the length of it soon which is pretty much all its good for
