You will be OK with a trailer on "real" logging roads, usually they are
wide enough for 2 large logging trucks to cross each other. On the other
hand country roads or off road trails or forest roads are just one vehicle
wide with some pull over spots.. on such roads if you need to turn around
you have to unhook the trailer put it on the side, turn around your van,
turn around the trailer by hand then re-hook the trailer. Your trailer must
be sturdy enough the handle off road trails.
