I would not recommend route 22 as it has long 10% grades in both directions. A route that most should avoid.
In Wilson you'll find the sign - Free coffee and popcorn while we repair your brakes :B
Don't those big class A rigs have engine brakes? Sorry, I'm not familiar.
I pulled off the Hams Fork switchbacks, Big Spring Scenic Backway, Bridger-Teton National Forest, today. Big grades in those parts. Unpaved road. 4-wd, low range uphill a few days ago. Gotta love the Cummins engine brake, tow/haul and downshift ;)
Hey Rich.....that makes two of us on the forum, that knows where the Hams Fork switchbacks are! ;)
It wasn’t very long ago, that you’d had trouble with a trailer over about 20 feet in length!
Almost forgot, what’s “Teddy Bear Corner” look like theses days...it’s been about 8 years since we were there?
The teddy bears are still there. We have been going up the Cokeville side for some years but we don’t want to meet a log truck since we got the new 32’ TT. Few places to turn out and I’ve had to back the old shorter toy hauler a few hundred yards downhill to let a logger pass.
We always carry a chain saw. Too much deadfall with the beetle kill. Gotta watch where you put the camper, too!
Ps you have PM.
