That is possible I had spent the night in Houston and wanted to see the guys at Nadina. When I got up in the morning and pulled up to the shop I realized the shop had burned to the ground that night. I can't believe that happened to those guys. It was terrible to see all the guys standing there in disbelieve and just looking devastated. I hope all works out for the guys and they can come back bigger and better.
I'm usually on Ladd1 just call me on the radio the next time you see me. -
Will do! I should be running up that way quite a bit to the Bruce jack mine on Hwy 37. The highways been In pretty good shape for being December up there!

I will be heading out Monday again. It's pretty cold in most places right now. How do you like the new lanes they added to get in to the Bruce Jack mine? What kind of mine is it anyways?

They added some turn lanes on the mine side and cut stuff back for better sight distance when entering 37. I will be behind you since I don't start loading until the afternoon. It can be anywhere between 5 and midnight by the time I will leave down here.
Looks like you will be throwing chains going into the mine depending on what the road looks like. I see some of the Bandstra guys coming out there in the summer and their trucks are covered in mud. Have you ever gone to Telegraph Creek? I here that is an interesting road to go down there. -
What are DOT rules like up there?

Yea I kinda thought it looked wider. Same with the entrance to the mine road. I swear before it was really narrow with a gate right off the highway. Yea you have to throw triples on all the drive tires, a steer chain and a drag chain on the trailer. Pretty fun road though. Luckily I didn't do it in the summer as the guys were saying it's way rougher and lotsa mud. Guess I'll pass you on my way back if my unloading goes ok.
Ruthless Thanks this. -
