Two of these trucks were parked last night when we got to where we spent the night at the Utah border. Each one contained the box for one of the giant mining dump trucks. The overhang on each side looked to be over 6 feet. That load width requires that the traffic on Hwy 50 would have to be stopped on the passes where the wide spots do not exist.
I expected to see these trucks gone when I took the dogs for a walk this morning, but they were still there waiting for the pilot cars. Finally they arrived and the entourage started down the road heading west at 8:30. I'm glad that I wasn't going west this morning.
