Sand in the corner

We have had snow almost every weekend. But yesterday it was 60 and I took my Suzuki up Lookout Mt. Here's a switchback with sand covering the apex. It doesn't look too bad, but it's so steep you can't see it until you're almost upon it. What did I do?

First I cursed out the public works for dumping sand there. Second, I was looking around the corner and saw that the downhill lane was clear of sand, and there was no traffic coming down. I leaned a little more, pushed a little more, and went into the other lane. I stopped on the way down and took the picture.
