I was looken around for a dodge to use as a anchor...but had to use a pile of rocks 
Used the winch and a strap on a couple of rocks. When we came back I went threw the other side of the hole just fine. A jeep rolled off the road in this same spot the day before. My boys helped turn him over and pulled him to the low part of the road. Then they hooked him to a dodge truck to pull him back on the road.
We did see a couple of nice 6 x 6 bulls tho.

I've been trying to find one for my F350.

The brush gaurd is a warn. They only sell them in black so I had a powder coat company try and match the gold on the truck.
If your like that tire hanging up in the air he is another one for ya.

If you look in the sage you can see the tire marks where the jeep slid down the bank and rolled over.
The snow drift down the road was worse. Some of the four wheeler trails had big snow drifts on them. So we had a tough time getting around. Oh......not to say I would ever ride a four wheeler in the forest......? haha

Shoot BIGJOHN!
That ain't even close to being Stuck!
One thing about a fricken Diesel!
They don't get off the Road too far before they are in trouble!
The Back wheels usually don't even make it to the Stuck Hole!
You need some counter-weight in the back end!
For GAWDS Sakes Guys,We Got Kids on this Site,Some of them are 65 years Old!
I don't care if they're big or small!
If they throw lead I like em all!

Seven Mile Country. Slow to dry out. It's just to dang tempting not to push the access dates. Have to admit, your not the first one thats dropped a wheel on that stretch. The really crappy part of your adventure is I'll be the one getting bounced around all summer going through your ruts. ;-)
On over to Gates Lake and It's "elk city" from now until August 15th +/-

LAST EDITED ON Jul-11-11 AT 09:36PM (MST)[p]My brother in law was up there with his scouts last week . He said wednesday a backhoe and dump trucks full of gravel headed down to fix the road . He also said a front end loader was used to clear the snow drift down past the ranger station.My other brother in law is up there this week, with scouts from bountiful.
Its nice not to see and here cows every where. But I am sure they will start moving them in soon.
Rick ,It just took a minute to hook a strap around a pile of rocks and pull myself out. Nice to have a 15,000 pound winch handy . Be prepared !
Ps: by the way those are 35 inch mudders buried in that hole. The truck makes them look small. The back tire floated right over bessy. Haha
