with the wind in the Pass today at 100 kms, maybe it would be nice to have a camera in his truck.

Hoping he doesn't get blown into the ditch....


ummm good thing i didnt read this before it happened .... not a fun feeling seeing trailer sideways back and forth across road finally trailer going sideways in ditch catching a lip and tipping it on its side .. a one hour wait for tow truck ... get trailer upright and of course a visit by the cops (same ones as at the staging area ) so had a chuckle ...inspected precious cargo inside crap came off the shelf but other than that superclamps kept sleds where they were supposed to be ... so slight crinkling done to trailer between man door and front sled door , also lost the clip that holds the man door open a marker light and a bent reciver on the truck and thats it for damage that i can see in the dark and no i didnt take pics

Wow, you got away extremely easy, for flopping a trailer on it's side. I have never seen a receiver twist like that. Glad everybody's ok.

well black ice on road combined with high winds made for exciting moments ... also when waiting for tow truck watching semi's go by and the trailers slipping on the stuff as well

yeah like that tune, "nowhere to run, nowhere to hide". makes you religious in a hurry.

on the bright side the sleds are ok, truck is ok, the trailer is drive able, with a few repairs, you will have stories to tell for years. fernie posted a few of the other stories.


just glad to hear your ok, can't keep good peeps down.

I don't own a cargo trailer or anything, but presume a stabilizer hitch would prevent this?
