Stuck Truck - Bountiful Peak, Utah

[cruiseroutfit]

Everything I know:

"I am looking for help or advice on how to retrieve a 4-wheel drive vehicle that my son has stuck behind Bountiful peak. It is down a road that leads to hardscrabble canyon, the road is very rough and narrow for a bout ¾ mile up to where a normal 4-wheel drive vehicle can go. I do not have the off road experience to negotiate the trail and it my need to be cabled to another vehicle in spots. The truck is a 1987 Bronco II and is drivable. If you can offer help or know of some one that is willing to do this it would be much appreciated. I of course would pay a fair price for this service. The approximate coordinates on Google earth are 40°52'49.92"N, 111°45'27.07"W



Sincerely

Lou Barrett

Wish I could help out, I'm headed out the door for the RelicRun shortly

 

[Gravy]

That's a hard area. Off piste hill covered in silt and loose rock. I could probably help. I sent him a text.

Wish I could but I'm booked so solid it ain't even funny from now through sometime on Sunday at the earliest.

I'm in for a rescue in the morning. I don't have an afternoon/evening free for another week. I don't know the area at all and don't have a winch, so it'd be best if I wasn't the only truck up there.

I do have a spiffy cool rebar winch anchor if anybody wants to borrow it.

 

[Gravy]

Kevin, I'm texting him. If he's down to get it this morning, maybe you can help me?

 

[Kevin B.]

How far in is it? I'd like to be home by 1500 at the latest.

nm, I see the GPS now. That looks doable, if we left shortly.

 

[Gravy]

Kevin pm me your number or text me. I lost it.

If you guys need help after 3pm let me know.

I can help tomorrow if this isn't already handled.

 

[Kevin B.]

'Tis handled. He was trapped at the bottom of about seventy five yards of gnarly off-camber rocky hill climb. Stratton aired him down and walked him up - he was a sketched out kid, but he made it with no more dents.

I liked the weather a lot better up there, somebody else go get stuck.

 

[rollover]

Nice recovery. It's nice when it goes smooth.

 

[blznnp]

Glad you guys got it handled, way to step up again an help a complete stranger.

 

[dutchman]

Good work guys!

[Gravy]

Recovery was safe and clean. Happy to help.
We were prepared for much more. Sometimes things go well.
Thanks for the help loading and unloading Kevin.

I liked the weather a lot better up there, somebody else go get stuck.

I keep trying, but, well, I'm always UNSTUCK.

 

[Bart]

Way to go guys. Another safe recovery brought to you by RME.

So earlier I drove up there in my truck just to look across the valley and the same kid was up there trying to show off for some chick, hope doesn't roll it.
