- Description:
- Although this truck alone weighs almost 60,000 pounds, it's not uncommon for one or two huge granite armor rocks to lift the front wheels clear of the ground. A dozer, blade visible at left, solved the truck drivers dilemma in this problem. The trucks can carry 20-30 tons, and sometimes one rock is an entire load. Approximately a year and one-half will be required to line the banks for close to one mile downstream from the Grand Coulee Dam.
