I was there 2 weeks ago, I didn't do my normal route so I was a little mixed uthere waas some muddy sharp left turn up hill that took some major work to get up for us to get up, the expressway rock, the new crack. There are a few others, but I suppose they aren't required obstacles as there are ways around them.

We were there last weekend and was going the other direction around that "muddy sharp left turn up hill", so basically a "muddy downhill sharp right turn and found a broken full size Chevy there....smack dab in the middle of the muddy sharp turn. I think that trail is called "lower mainline" or something like that. Its the first trail to the left if coming in from "ShooFly".

Long story short, I had to drive around him on the inside of the turn which made for some hairy sidehill action (thought I was going to flop). I then had to turn around and try winching this guy out of there. We tried everything for 2 hours but could not get him unwedged from a tree root and out of the mud.

Eventually got Simon around him using my winch/snatchblock/tree saver and keeping him on all 4 tires, at which point my battery died.

Hopefully the owner was able to get up there the next day and get his rig out of there.

About that truck--I got a text about it on monday, talked to Kim that nite---Got the call tuesday to round up troops for the extraction....And Yesterday Jayson (subaru), Jesse (yellow yota), and Don (red CJ) went up and yanked it onto the road!!! Took about 2 hrs for them to get it off the trail.... I guess the only things missing were the carb, alternator, and battery---not bad for 5 days!!!!:awesomework:

We tried for 2 hours, but it was dark (6pm), cold and very muddy and with only my junk pulling it wasnt cutting it.

Glad to hear its out. I felt bad for the owner as he said he just bought it 2 days before taking it up there and getting stuck. I guess he blew the engine trying to get out of the mud. While I was yankin on it trying to get him unhooked from the root, the steering linkage snapped. Thats probably why it took the gang 2 hours to get him out.

Yup, I'm sure I'll get the whole story tonight!:awesomework: Thanks Cuz!:redneck:

Apparantly the "owner" is from O.H. and left for bootcamp on the 3rd, truck's not in his name and he still owes $ on it, or so the locals say....nice of him to leave it behind.:looser:
