What an epic day! Great group of guys and gals! Thanks Glen for messaging me about this so I could join in on the fun! Ill get some pics up asap!

 

Yikes! Glad you stopped in time! What happened? Texting while driving?

 

wow the angle you took this pic in makes the drop look even bigger

 

Ok TaCo ADDICT, not all of us could make it yesterday. Let's have the story!!

 

Oh no you didnt!!!

 

Someone in the lead decided that we had to reverse up the (rather tight) trail, rather than continuing. I was behind Dylan, focused on my own maneuver, when I next looked forward he was way off to the left of where he should have been. Initial attempts at recovery made it worse. Someone came up with the idea of assist from uphill; all available straps were deployed. Jay did the pull from on high and TaCo ADDICT still has a truck. Awesome.

How Dylan got that far off track initially is the matter of some speculation.

 

I was in front of him backing up. I saw he was hanging out the window pushing branches off of his truck while trying to maneuver his truck backwards. It went from front driver wheel off the trail to almost losing his truck. Funny thing was I had a winch in front,Eric had a winch from behind and in no way could we utilize either.

 

I got it on video on my go pro! I'll cut it and get it on here. the view is far away though

 

Next time I would much prefer the pin stripes>losing my whole truck, it was driver error I wasn't paying much attention to the left side of me

 

I'll just pat myself on the back for that idea.. hehe!

I didn't think it would work at first, it looked too far from the top part of the trail. Then everyone started pulling straps out of their ass! Glad we had a organized team of members; everyone seemed to have some type of recovery equipment, well done!
