    I'm still calling bullshit on the "Ubolt" thing, somethings not right, AFAIK automotive grade ubolts are equivalent to grade 8, you can't just break them, and if they loosen up, you can't not notice it.

    There's no way he was "going up a steep incline with dirt and rocks" and then "slipped off a rock" thus breaking the u bolts.

    I'm not sure what the failure was. I was making a point about their recovery. Ubolts don't snap from climbing a steep hill and bouncing off a rock.

    Reading the guys replies makes my head hurt.

    The Internet, text messaging, etc has killed the use of proper punctuation and grammar.

    I have a habit of not replying to text messages because I am lazy and 1) don't want to use text speak and 2) hate using the onscreen keyboard.

    Camera angle makes it somewhat difficult to perceive how steep the incline was but that just looks like the biggest botch of a recovery or attempt at trail maintenance I've ever seen. Besides whatever problems they had with the ubolts, no one there used common sense in that situation.

    Probably best he never goes in the dirt again.
