    As the occupants are ok--

    "Good tires" Bob mused as he lit a cigarette "but not great tires." :)

    Completely agree. Drive the cars instead of putting them in garages. She was doing that. Complete respect!

    Driven this route many times, including once in a 720S.

    I think it's a good reminder that if you do not know what is on the otherside of a corner, take it easy. In all my observations, the most common cause of crash in canyon carving is simply not being able to see how sharp a corner really is and then entering it far too quickly. Seems like the owner is saying this is what happened in her case as well. Glad she walked out with minor injuries. It's one of the reasons I hope Ferrari includes a carbon monocoque in their entry level mid engine cars sooner rather than later.

    Good thing about this route (Lake Mead Rec) is that at least it has very few cliffs. She may not be posting on the forums if this was Mullholand or another California road.
