Here are url's to my Strava activities that have some photos of that road:

thanks for the intel. will be up there in 10 days for stage two of the atoc going up gibraltar but done gibraltar before.
will look to tackle both sides of refugio and amble over to el camino cielo and catch some of the race near the top of
gibraltar.
