Not a prayer. The road was only about 8 feet wide, steep uphill slope on
the left, steeper downhill slope to the right. The logging roads are
nothing fancy, just enough of a cut to get a truck through. When they're
logging the truckers have CB's so one can wait at a pull off like a
train on a siding.

20-20 hindsight he should have dropped the trailer and seen if he could
make it through with the pickup. But, June down it the valley, birds
chirping, and all that good stuff, you don't really plan to be stopped
by snow drifts.


I can see that.
