Yikes!
Not much in the way of roll-over protection. It's hard to see how anyone could have survived this crash.
It makes me glad our LDs have built-in roll-over protection.

Sad.

Have to assume using brakes too often was the culprit, which is odd considering they were from Idaho, would think they know better on mountain grades.

I do not care how slow I am going downhill in low gears, taking a while to arrive safely beats the alternative of getting down the hill too fast.

"Have to assume using brakes too often was the culprit,..."

To say nothing about trying to pass another vehicle while driving a Class A and towing a Ford pickup to boot! Kinda stupid!  ::) Particularly when he was already off the pass and on nearly flat ground, yes, I know the terrain that well!  >:(
