    Yikes. Hope she is safe and has supplies. Can’t help from Chicagoland but here’s a bump.

    We don't know anyone out that way. OP is closer then I am and it seems he already rolled out. Hope the recovery goes easily. Sounds like it will.

    Thats about a 3 hour drive for me, and I know that area pretty well. The location is pretty close to the cavern...

    Op hasn't responded plus this was posted in the Vegas bs thread. Hopefully is works out. Dad left around 7 and should be close by now.

    I sent the OP my contact info if more assistance is needed , hopefully it's just a simple tug with a strap and nothing more.

    Thanks guys! I made it and got her back out to pavement. She did have water and a signal so it wasn’t too crazy. She said it was a good lesson for her to be prepared. I appreciate all the good thoughts and help with posting elsewhere. I’m on my way back, might stop and sleep for a while if I get tired

    I didn't get any pics. She was out there with her dog and GF. They had water and snacks but not much else. It's a 2wd and it was fairly buried... pretty much to the bumper in the rear. She had dug out a bit before I got there with her small shovel and did quite a bit more when I got there with my larger shovel. One solid tug and I was able to get her back to the center of the wash, she had gotten stuck when she tried to turn around.

    It's a good wakeup call for her. I'm going to suggest traction boards.

    The tow truck driver tried to help by letting air out of one tire but that didn't work and he couldn't drive the tow truck in the wash.
