Agreed - you'll probably be on the road by 9:30ish and at least an hour drive. You won't get lost but its pretty tough driving with no light other than your car's headlights...worse when an oncoming car has their highbeams on. There is one stretch where you cross a bridge that makes it feel like a scene out of Avatar but you probably won't notice at night.
