The Ride to Hell and Back... Literally (youtu.be)

My wife and I did an epic 5-day motorcycle ride around the Karoo in South Africa in October 2012, and it included a detour away from the Swartberg Pass and down a treacherous pass to stay at a place called Die Hel (or The Hell in English). Going in was easy but getting out after some rain overnight proved to be a hell of a ride... this video shows the dangerous slippery single road out of The Hell, a spontaneous river that needed to be crossed, and I mention the very slippery wet clay road after that.
