Introduction to road conditions:

The road condition of this route is good, but the west Sichuan Road is more dangerous, so you need to walk slowly. Some roads were washed by rain and hit by falling rocks, and the subgrade was seriously damaged. It's pitted and rotten like a gun hole. Although there are few muddy sections, it will still scratch the chassis to some extent. Will not affect the traffic.

Another thing is to pay attention to the falling rocks on the mountain. This kind of thing is uncertain and no one can predict it. Drive carefully, pay attention to whether the mountain is loose, and try to travel together.
