    Those guys really know what they are doing. We have followed the ones hauling the windmill blades, and to see them go around a corner as something to see.

      Larry it was amazing. We've talked to the Windmill blade drivers and I can't imagine how they do it. Wow! It took us by surprise for sure!

      Hi Larry... Thank you for your kind words... My wife and I did their super loads with GE wind energy for 14 years...we are now retired... You are correct it takes teamwork between the 2 or 3 escorts to get that thing around a corner.... It does create a little bit of a poker factor.. Stay safe

      I totally agree Larry. But I'd still freak if we came head to head with one of these rigs. 🥴

    When the rear of the trailer swung over right in front of us I totally freaked out.

      It was very surprising. Definitely caught us off guard.

    Great video. I grew up in Anacortes so it was good to see the islands again. And that outfit pulling that long beam reminded of a guy I knew that 'drove' a rear tractor for years. He made good money doing that, not everyone is cut out for it. Looking forward to your future travels.

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great visit to North Cascades NP! Yes, it is hard to believe that it is so infrequently visited because it is such a gem as you showed from the road and on your hike.
    Safe travels and keep sharing this wonderfully scenic videos!

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  ปีที่แล้ว

      It was a very unusual NP, Pete. So I think it's not appreciated since the real beauty of it is in the backcountry. Beautiful area though, we'll be back! Thanks for watching the channel.

    Robbie, that's called a steer able jeep. The person in the Jeep is about 12" off the ground. Plus 90% of the time he sees the back of the tow rig. Been there done that. Also pulled triples. Both will keep you on your toes at all times.

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thanks Gary for the kind comments. Hope you enjoy the channel enough to subscribe and get the weekly videos. Yes, we designed our trailer and Space Craft built it back in 2018/2019. It's based on a semi trailer frame with semi running gear. Air disc brakes all around, it will stop all 70,000 lbs of us when completely hooked up. In the near future, we're going to do a 4 part series on our set up. Thanks.
