Default T Pickup pulling a trailer

About two hours ago I was heading east at Spooner Summit in Douglas County Nevada.(Lake Tahoe) Heading west was a Model T pickup pulling a vintage covered trailer. Anyone have any information on this adventure?
The truck had a bunch to tourist stickers on the side.

That is Dean Yoder from Iowa I would guess. I believe he is doing a national park to national park tour. You can find something on Facebook I think.

Or likely his traveling companion, Hobart Akin. He has a brass pickup, Dean is driving a touring, both hauling camping trailers, doing a Park to Park tour of many of the Nat'l Parks!

The truck and camping trailer I saw was a lot more "Rustic" looking. No offense intended!!
Thanks for the replys.

Well the most 'tourist stickers' can be found on Dean's T touring and his tent camper!

Yikes! No brakes on the front wheels or the trailer!

Well, they did it, "back in the day", without a second thought.
I'm sure that you won't see them on the interstates !
