Thread: Stuck....bad.

    Stuck....bad.

    We had seen some unknown writings at Moore when we decided to go on another road to another canyon. The road soon became a 4 wheeler trail so we started to turn around. As we swerved to turn a large deer jumped in front of us. We swerved back to miss it as we started down a side hill. I thought we were going to fall in the bottom of the wash when my truck lurched to a stop. But i could move back or forward. I got out and my runningboards were hitting a large rock. I had no choice i pulled forward but it wouldn't go. I hit the gas hard and the truck hit a large pinetree. Better yet I still couldn't move I hit the gas going in reverse now. I realized i had gotten between two large pinetrees after i hit the second one on my bumper. The truck was five feet away from the ledge, a 10 foot drop to the bottom of the wash. I took a deep breath and surprisingly i got out. I got out and checked the damage. The plastic part of the bumper had a long tear and the sides were COVERED in deep scratches. To make it better there was a large branch in my tailgate. Just glad to be out now. I guess.... i better buy a new truck

    You mean you got out and walked around or you got out of the mess and drove home?

    Here's the rock art if anyone's curious.

    What is the point of a trip report without any pictures?

    you bumped an old thread from nearly a year ago. there were pictures at that time. perhaps the flickr photo stream code roll out didn't work here.
