It's fun towing on ice ain't it.
Driving to a destination carrying all the hunting gear and food supplies for a party of seven with the trailer becoming a mixmaster isn't the best.;)
We got lucky, all the guns, deer stands, propane tanks, batteries, and food were intact except for a syrup bottle that spun itself onto the countertop and leaked into the paper cups. The auxilliary 12V battery spun off the floor and landed upside down into the sink. When we opened the door after the rollover it looked like a pile of rubbish, lol.
AFAIK, this same trailer is still in use.
We were going to our sons place for Christmas a few years back, highway reader board said there was an accident ahead. I let up on the throttle a bit next thing I see in the mirror, backend of the trailer about three feet to the left of center. I thought the Greyhound bus the was overtaking us was going to finish the job.
Trucks going straight, a little tap to the brake controller switch and the trailer gets back where it belongs.
Around the next bend five vehicles in the median, two cars and a pickup on their roofs, anther car and pickup buried in the windrow. The Greyhound passes me, when I look over he gives me a thumbs up. For the life of me I don't know why I was on that highway, I hate it and usually take the scenic route.
Sure was happy I had the Hensley Hitch that day.
