BACKHOES AND HILLSIDES....
Sometimes they just don't mix. The Rocky Mountains can be steep and treacherous, especially for machinery that's inherently unbalanced by design. This operator had the bucket up too high (raising the center of gravity) when he went onto the side of the hill. The unit toppled. No one was hurt and the backhoe sustained minimal damage. The Wrecker used was affectionately named "Lil Rottie", a 29,850 GVW International with a Holmes 600.
