    OP - can you take some more pics of the area behind the truck when you head up today so we can see what we're working with? Also, do you have a rear bumper with a recovery point?

    guessing we'll have to do some digging + traction board + a tug to get you out.

    will confirm this afternoon if I can make it tomorrow. trying to move some thing I have scheduled in the morning.

    I happen to be up there once a month, usually for work related reasons.

    Unfortunately(and fortunately) my truck is in pieces at BAMF. Or else I would have already been up there to aid in recovery. My work truck is in no way capable of attempting a recovery.

    Some dude pops in and points out that there are people that post in here don’t really want to help. How does that help?

    To the stuck guy; I’ve gotten out many times with ratchet straps on my tires/wheels(whatever combo works to attach the sticks/logs/2x4’s). These are lessons we all learn as we grow. I do my damndest to stay out of the mud. I don’t go looking to play in it anymore. I’m too old for that shit now.

    I agree, I still think that passenger wheel looks like the lower ball joint broke. The camber looks way off on it and it's pointed more to the side than the other wheel. Unless the mud is playing tricks on my eyes.

    "Virtue Signalling" or not, commenting in a recovery thread keeps it bumped to the top of the forum and visible to those who might be able to help.

    Here's a virtue signaling bump for you OP

    As far as I know yes, it's buried deep in the mud so it might look bad. I'll put up a side view picture
