Finished up our night ride, took off my boots, sat on the couch and…. Wouldn’t you know I get a call… I guess the night isn’t over yet….

Good tires matter.
Albert, CO this morning. This truck doesn’t look like it’s stuck, but the nearly bald tires couldn’t get any traction and had turned everything under them into ice. Please, make sure to check your tread before the weather gets bad.
Fresh snow
Ran out to Payton this morning, 11 inches of snow. This hard working man got stuck in this unplowed neighborhood. Everyone was out shoveling but no one offered to help him. I got him on his way in no time.
Off-Road and Recovery Gift Cards!
Did you know most car insurance companies will not cover accidents that happen on off-road trails? In fact, if you get stuck or stranded on an off-road trail there are little to no towing companies or rescue groups for you to call for help. Often the companies that would be willing to help are extremely expensive. Volunteer groups have little to no experience yielding very inconsistent results. If you want reliable help from trained experts, we have a solution for you!
Beast Off-Road and Recovery specialize in back trails and off-road rescues. If you or you know someone who loves taking their side-by-side or 4-wheeling vehicle on trails, and you want some extra insurance for the day you get stuck consider purchasing one of our gift cards. With a one-time purchase of a gift card, you can have extra insurance without any monthly fees. Only use the gift card when you need it instead of paying a costly subscription for something you rarely use.
Click on the – Gift Card Link – to purchase your gift card to wheel with confidence knowing you have a recovery option.
When it comes to purchasing a gift card keep some of these basic prices in mind:
Winch outs – $150: This is for basic recoveries for pulling stuck vehicles out of ditches. Prices may go up based on the conditions and severity of the accident.
Mileage fees – $1.50 per mile: mileage fees are calculated from the starting location of the recovery drive to the site of the rescue.
Additional labor charges can apply depending on weather conditions or how extensive of a rescue that is needed.
Off-Road Classes
You’ve purchased a new off-road vehicle, what now? Would you like to go off-road but don’t know where to start? Lucky for you, we can help. We offer beginner, intermediate, and advanced off-road classes. You will learn how to use your new off-road vehicle, and how and when to use 4 Hi or 4 Lo. Learn tricks, such as reducing the air pressure in your tires, which helps with ride comfort and traction on the trails. Explore the mountain roads, and push your limits, all while showing what your off-road vehicle is capable of tackling. Become more confident and comfortable behind the wheel.
Classes cover a variety of skill sets from brand-new beginners to advanced techniques. Each class is customized and designed around the individual student and their interests. As you progress through our course offerings you will move up to pushing yourself more and trying more difficult trails. You will experience being off-camber (leaning to one side or the other). See how your vehicle will articulate over rocks and dips. Learn to traverse washouts in the road. All while learning how to read the trail in front of you and how to position your vehicle to get around or over obstacles.
Your new off-road vehicle is probably more capable than you can imagine, but everyone will eventually get stuck while being off-road. Let us show you what equipment you should always carry in your vehicle. Have a winch on the front, want to know how to use it correctly and safely? We will show you how to rig a self-recovery and even how to help another vehicle that may be stuck.
