By the way, Caminito del Rey is actually closed and they are in the process of revamping it. The trail currently is WORSE than in the posted video:

Yea, a few deleted expletives escaped my mouth with the rail walking and the missing chunks of concrete in the middle of the path.
That and I kept thinking of a girlfriend who had to sit in the middle of the floor in the van so she couldn't see out the windows while we DROVE up Pike's Peak...lol!
I think I'll put that hike on the 'maybe when they fix the trail' list!!
Damn! I was getting vertigo just watching that! I love the missing chunks of concrete. Gives you a really warm feeling about the footing you're walking on.
