WHITEOUT! Trucking Through A Blizzard In The Colorado Rockies! Pt. 1

3 жыл бұрынWHITEOUT! Trucking Through A Blizzard In The Colorado Rockies! Pt. 1
First part of a two video series. After trying to head up to I-80 and finding it closed for the next 14 hours, I resorted to trying I-70 through the Colorado Rockies.
A winter storm of blowing snow caused not only slippery roads, but spontaneous white outs. This caused traffic to pile up and slow across the pass.
As traffic slowed the craziness ensued! Sliding vehicles and brutal winds. It was an experience I’ll never forget!

I'm retired now. But, back in the day. I kept 2 small wedges of timber (about 3 foot) in my side boxes. I would place them in front of the inside wheels of the tandems. Pull-up on them, then throw my chains on the outside tires of the tandem. Repeat process for the rest. This acts as a make shift ramp to lift the wheel off of the ground. Have a great weekend and be safe out there. Have a very Merry- Merry and a Happy-Happy as well.
@6stringgunner511 3 жыл бұрын
At the 11:30 mark. Another old school tip that you might consider. Carry a couple of gallons of Clorox bleach in the side box. A couple cups under the tires will allow you to grip traction on the icy surface. 🤔 Just be careful with it near your good clothes.

@@mauriciomontano8765 THAT is a good point! I was wondering that too. Is it bc FedEx handles time sensitive material such as mail??? However, speeding through the chaining, increases your chances of personal injury and missing a step during chain installation.

Hahah - get it done boss-lady!! I'm based out of Denver now, and every very now and then, I'll take a winter haul across the Rockies just to keep me on my toes. I always carry a big jug of salt/snow melt, and a bag of kitty litter for instances just like this. It will save you a WORLD of trouble. Also, I know it may not be possible as a company driver - but I can't recommend snow socks enough. They are easier to install and work much better than chains in my experience. Stay safe, and keep on trucking!

This is why you train on putting on chains BEFORE each winter. Because when it happens like this, you got to know how to do it and that your equipment is working. The same can also be said for cars: Know how to change a flat tire, because you don’t want to learn it at night with lots of traffic around you. Or to even find something is missing.

Out here in Washington anytime Snoqualmie or Stevens pass gets too bad with snow they end up closing them for several hours to let the plows catch up and / or do avalanche control. I work with several guys who commute over Snoqualmie pass every day at 70 to 100 miles each way every day, and a few years ago it was closed so many times that the guys probably wnded up missing close to 4 weeks worth of days between November and March due to not being able to get to work from the closures. Typically its not that bad but every few years we get snow storms that drop several feet at a time and the plows cant keep up.

I've been watching a lot of videos such as this along with a lot of offroad recovery videos as well. The more I watch, the more I'm convinced that you men and women in the U.S. have it far far tougher than just about anything we see here. At least anything I've ever seen and I've driven every desert in this country except for one and in very harsh and extreme conditions. Still no matter how tough I've ever had it, I see it even tougher here and with tougher people dealing with conditions that would have had me long giving up and going home to bed. I have nothing but respect for the very hard working people I see in these clips and to be honest, its easy for me to see just why your country, despite all its ups and downs, is the great nation that it is. Its all the people who just do not back down or back away from that which just needs to be done. And along with this, I sure as heck love all the gear that you build too.

Living in Colorado I know all about being in a snowstorm and on I70.. its pretty rough and scary at times...and a little fun too haha... good to see the perspective of a semi truck driver thank you.

Shelby I think at some point you must have been watching Lisa on Ice Road Truckers and picked up on her road worthiness , as even when you were walking backwards and something flew past you , you didn't seem at all phased. And this is only November, 5 months to go till Spring.

I will never pull wiggle wagons, especially with an automatic in snow.

I used to pull wiggle wagons, but grain trailers at 105,500 pounds

@@michaelc9128 105,500 lbs on single axle A trains? I doubt that. With that kinda weight, and being grain trailers, I'm guessing you were pulling B trains and not single axle.

I’m a bit older than you but even if I were your age, I’m far to girly girl for any type of job closely remote to trucking. So shout out to you for not being afraid to get behind the wheel of these powerful machines. Take care of yourself and drive safely. Greetings from Europe.

There's like basically no snow on the road. You're getting stuck on that?!?! Jeez... those trucks with those tires would never handle Canadian weather at all. Get proper winter rated tires and you won't ever need chains for little stuff like that ever again. Us Canadians drive on ice and snow all winter non-stop. Still entertaining to watch this though.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Been driving in Finland for 15 years and I have never put chains on my truck.

@@Riina77 you guys aren't mountain people, obviously. she is climbing higher inito the rockies from where she is now. you have to chain up early, or you get stuck when the snow gets deeper higher up! She is not stuck anyway.

They'd be throwing chains everyday in BC from September to April lol That truck isn't fit to run the mountains.

that's why the US has a tv show showing all the trucks trying to go over the Rockies getting stuck, sliding off the roads in Canada because you guys are so great at it. hilarious show😂🤣

Was thinking the same, she needs to slow down, I guess she is in a rush, but thats specially when accidents tend to happen.
