Wonder which is worse the uphill pull or the downhill side?

Behind the bike or in a trailer pulled by a vehicle? If behind the bike I would say uphill. If behind a vehicle I would say depends on the pulling vehicle.

Although coming into a corner too hot while headed downhill pulling a trailer on a bike has a good pucker factor.  :o

However, pulling a trailer on a bike uphill, 25% grade, around off camber hairpin turns, in the snow isn't a soft kitty moment either. (Sonora pass)

Usually I would agree with that first statement.  Then you blew past it with the second one when I got to the addition of snow on top of the other factors.  Holy chit, Batman.   :o
