I'm about to take you into a world very few people will ever see. It's a world where danger is around every corner. Avalanches and rock slides are possible at any moment. You need the right skills and experience to be part of the team that will spend 8 weeks clearing and repairing Norway's most famous mountain pass road. I got to spend a day with the team to see firsthand what goes on. This is the first time this incredible story has been told to an international audience. Videos like this are what Youtube should be all about!
