Part 2, Myself and a lifted FJ ( out of 7 vehicles) were the only ones to make it up this hill. Took us a half hour with winch and shovel to get the Rub unstuck and up the hill. Apoligies for the crappy vid, wife took it with her cell phone.

How do you get stuck that bad? And, how do you get someone else to dig you out?

I guess lack of experience can get ya stuck that bad, as far as the shoveling, they were his passengers. I bet it was " dig or walk"

From what I could see, a Nice looking tracker.

Awesome!

 

what is that on some type of silt deposit? i know videos do no justice but it doesnt look that bad until the last little hump

priceless! and the jeep owner may not have wanted dirt under his finger nails so the passengers had to dig or walk...

Loose sand and very deep ruts, washed out by craploads of heavy rain. A couple of the ruts were measured in FEET deep. My Tracker was 3 wheeling most of the way up, one wheel being a couple feet in the air at any givin time. Lot worse than it looks, just after I got the rube unstuck, a guy in a lifted 4wd Dodge Cummins PU also tried it and got stuck with 35" mudders. I didn't stick around to try and pull that out, He had other trucks with him.
