Alan, just a shot in the dark; you work at Kennecott?

Have you guys already fished out the 793B or are the D10’s keeping it company?

I don't know the story, but this picture was e-mailed to me a while back. Said to be at the bottom of Kennecott's Bingham Canyon Mine.

Sorry Lashlander, :beatsme :D it might be real but that dont mean its big :D

I too have seen that pic, as well as a couple from farther out. you can even see the oil trail down the face where the truck went down. If it is fake, it is a good one.
One thing i did notice looking at it with a more critical eye now is that some of the "boulders" look a little big to have been hauled to the dump and pushed off. There are a few there that look larger than the truck bed. That don't mean they are not real, just worthy of another look.

Whats the verdict???

Thanks Lash.
I was going to post, but could only find the close up in my files. I was pretty sure I had this one, but maybe not.
I had forgotten the reason for the boulders. They are a little big for the truck, but easy to see why now.

:eek: :shf we dont have a smiley with egg on its face so that will have to do.
Thank you very much and I am now a believer :notworthy I could have lost an awful lot of money betting on that as I was sure it was a good fake. Looks just like a load of Type 1 limestone a big puddle and a kids tonka truck :D
