Some Heavy Winter Hauling….

I spent two days, and 800+ Km's, helping my brother move two of his Ford trucks.

It started on Thursday Nov 28 at about 4pm. I picked up my brother from his work, and grabbed one of their Tandem axle, tilt deck car trailers....nice trailer! We then went back to his place and loaded up his 72 Ford 4x4. We finally got going about 6pm. It was dark, cold (-8*C), and windy and starting to snow.

We traveled about an hour until we hit the Flying J truck stop to get some eats, and repair a couple lights on the trailer. Wind was so bad that I was seeing 12-14lbs of boost on level hwy surface!

Here what we looked like....





Now the next 4-5 hours we were up in the mountains of BC. It was friggin cold, and had been snowing the last day or so, and was continuing to snow. The roads we were on were single lane each way, and twisty, up and down, was packed ice with snow covering it. Top speed was maybe 70km/h, but mostly 50km/h.

First fill up about 10:45pm.....
