Shitty deal. If i didn't blow out my windows out there this weekend and the heep wasn't in the shop i would go help.

Where did they go 15 minutes off the main road that they got stuck?

Here's the thing....

There are probably lots of folks here willing to help out....but a bit more information would be VERY helpful when people are deciding to head out there.

#1. WHERE IS THE JEEP?

#2. IS THE JEEP BROKEN, OR JUST STUCK?

#3. HOW BADLY IS THE JEEP STUCK?

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

In reality, the easiest way to get this done is for HIM to post instead of people just constantly posting up "He is stuck".

If he is on trail and it won't fall apart when you get a winch hooked up and can drive away under its own power, then there isn't really an issue.

But if he is off trail, the best bet is to let SRD get him out. If you get busted helping out, they don't care if you are helping out or not.

If it is in need of a tow after, Big Hill is right in Cochrane and does this kind of thing all day long. Yeah, he will pay ($160/hr from when they turnt he key in Cochrane) but that cant be avoided if that is the situation he got himself into.

I'd get him out but I don't pick up my trailer until tonight. If you find a flat deck I guarnetee my jeep will get him out.

Is this the tanish Tj that looked hydro locked inbetween the bridge that's falling apart with the large hill on the right side and the
River?

Was it there Sunday?

I drive past a abandon jeep there, was going to pull it to the road but there were no keys. It's in the trail on the south side of the river where the trail gets skinny and there's muskeg on the bottom. Stupid hill climb on the left that
Bikes attempt to go up.

Make sense?

Edit** roughly point 6 on the old wiaparous map. I could tell you on the new map I just don't have one.
