Road Leading up the Mountain to Beason Site (H57)

You need a truck with four-wheel drive, low range and low gear to get to the top. Trucks longer than a 2 1/2 have a very hard time to navigate the switchback curves. Trucks towing a trailer often lose their traction. The site had a 3/4-ton truck most of the time and sometimes a 2 1/2 and/or a Jeep.
