The behemoth wagons that hauled silver and lead out of the mining camps north of Ketchum were the monster freight haulers of their day—semis rolling down dusty mountain roads behind 24 mules. They stretched the length of a football field as they went around hairpin turns.
The City of Ketchum trotted those wagons out for the annual Big Hitch Parade over Labor Day Weekend, and Eye on Sun Valley’s video team was there to capture it for today’s video.
