Anyone run into this place. Running a site truck on my step up to the mine. Seems there are 2 choices.
Come in from the west/Jordan Valley OR
Or from the east/Murphy ID.
Definitely dont look like STAA routes... lol
De Lamar mine in SE Idaho....

I'd call the mine and find out the route other trucks use going in there.

I would have called BEFORE leaving. Since it's the weekend.
You may get up there and have no cell service. For either you or them.
On another note. It'll be fun. I've had a few loads. Wilderness. Narrow dirt road. No cell. Had to turn around go back a few miles to get signal.
Couple of loads I had. Drive up the narrow curvy hill couple miles. Unload. BACK down the hill to get out. Turning around to drive forward out of there was not an option.
Elogs will definitely ruin your day.rabbiporkchop Thanks this.
