That old logging road from the late 50's is now closed, grown over.  I don't know if they ever got the truck out.

I swear, there is a higher percentage of dummies driving pickup trucks than any other type of vehicle...except maybe the tandem dump trucks flying around the Lower Mainland - had an empty setup "race" me on the Lougheed Highway today, just let the silly bastard go....

Based on my experience here in Texas, you're absolutely right.

Was that Hurricane City Utah?

I've got a place not far from there.

Edit, just read the description, it is near my place.
