Da Tow'd

I rebuilt the front suspension after our last trip out. The left front ball joint failed and we ended up getting towed home.
The wrecker truck driver hooked the chain in the wrong spot and punched a hole in the aluminum oil pan.
Whole bunch of new parts and the Silver Bullet was back in service.
We drove out of our little valley to Kamloops BC to visit our daughters.
Hickman Pass is the highest point on the Highway 20 road through the Coast Mountain Range of British Columbia.
The road winds up the mountain range with many switch backs and sheer drop offs.
Steep grades up to 15%.
No time to enjoy the view while driving. Plenty of pull outs to stop and then enjoy the sights.
Excellent trip
