GILMANTON, Wis.— A dairy tank truck lost traction climbing a steep hill, slid backwards out of control, and overturned. The driver was unhurt. This was on County Road KK west of Gilmanton. The truck landed upside-down in a deep ravine. The scraping impact on the way down the slope ripped the giant stainless steel milk tank from the truck’s frame.
