Who here has the Gonnands for this kinda driving?
Looks like log hauling but not sure how big the trailer is?
Is it easier coming down this mountain or going up?

uhhhh...log hauling...?????
most likely a pole trailer, which if i am correct, can be adjusted to size. -

TaterWagon#62, Grubby, 88 Alpha and 4 others Thank this. -
I'd do it. I've been on skinny & steep little roads like that with a coal bucket...difference is it wasn't nearly as far down the hill if I screwed up but it was a lot slicker. You're only in trouble if you miss a gear or get off the road...

That is vary good road for the Northwest logging most are not that wide or the level
Lepton1 Thanks this. -
I concur. I drove plenty of logging roads in a 4-wheeler in the PNW to go hiking, hunting, fishing, and climbing. Hats OFF to those that run these a few times a day hauling logs.
By the way, going up means you are empty, with the trailer collapsed to be almost bobtail. The down part is far more challenging. Throw in some rain or snow....passingthru69 Thanks this. -
Another day in the woods. With a log trailer you can eliminate any cheating of the dolly wheels. In fact, by shortening up the reach, the dolly can actually track outside of the truck wheels.
Lepton1 Thanks this. -
I got nervous just watching the video.Reminds me of those homemade roads in Brazile.

And your reference to Brazil reminds me of one of my favorite trucking movies, by the director of The French Connection.
