From the July 1, 2010 Edition of the Silverton Standard.
A trip to the Ghost town of Animas Forks goes south for this trucker.
Lesson: don't rely totally on your GPS!!!!
Paper reports that San Jaun County Sheriff responded to the scene and got a wrecker to pull it out.
Can you imagine the eyes of the tourists meeting this on the grade up from Eureka??!!
Editor has a great sense of humor about the incident too.
