Noah and I made it back safely. It was an 18 hour drive with the truck fully loaded to total 15 tons. Thankfully there was good weather and no snow! We would not have made it over the 11,000 feet pass. It was still 30 MPH all the way up. My son went to help and tore his pants first thing in the morning so his day was a bit drafty. Thank you Noah Frederiksen for all your help!
