There are still plenty of places with deep snow to get stuck in.
A few recoveries from the last two weeks…

This is the difference between using a tow strap and using a kinetic rope.
The bobcat worked on this for 45 minutes.. I showed up and with one pull had the loaded truck and trailer unstuck. Choose wisely.
Happy customers..
I enjoy reading what my customers think of me. This customer had a mishap on a washed out trail up on the mountain in the middle of the night. Since the vehicle was on its side it wouldn’t start and he quickly ran his battery down trying to winch out. I don’t care what time it is, if you need help, call me.
Feedback wanted for Future YouTube Channel!
Hey everyone, we are experimenting with videos to launch a YouTube channel. Keep in mind this is the very beginning of our journey. We are looking for POSITIVE and CONSTRUCTIVE feedback on this video from you, our potential future viewers. We are currently limited on camera equipment and high-tech editing software. So, video quality is something that will improve with time. Please keep the feedback focused on the video format and not critiques of the rescue itself. Here are a few of the feedback questions we are looking for:
1) How do you like the format? With the opening of a title pictures, and video, then end with an information picture.
2) How do you like the narration? We are trying to talk through the video to explain what is going on. Is this something you like? Do you have suggestions for improvement?
3) What types of videos or information would you like to see on an Off-Roading channel?
4) Do you have any ideas or suggestions for a new channel that you think would make us unique?
The ground is still saturated, be careful where you drive…
This past hail/rain storm has made the ground extremely wet . Heavy vehicles will sink quite easily… As you can see. Spinning your tires will only dig you in deeper. Stop and call for help if you can’t continue moving under your own power. You can always request me thru your roadside assistance program, or contact me directly and you can send my invoice to your insurance for reimbursement.

Another mountain recovery.
This Toyota driver found out just how tricky one of these trails can be, tire placement is everything on this one. Off camber and loose soil make this section a little sketchy. Since I’ve recovered multiple rigs from this exact spot it was a breeze. This could have gone bad in a big way if it would have slid a little farther down the hill.
Recovery on the mountain.
Since the snow fall was minimal, I decided to go hunting for it in the mountain. Lucky for this guy I did. It would of been awhile before anyone would of found him. Lucky for him I saw tracks going in and not coming out, so I went to investigate. He was off camber between trees front and rear.
A little redirect with the winch to pull him from between the trees and set up up again from a different angle to pull him out. He was very thankful I showed up.
