Glad to meet everybody. So many people to say thank you. Tony for leading and making sure no one is left behind, Mike and Ray for going back up the mountain to help. Emanuel using his Rubicon pulling guys who are stuck. Mike again for helping me.
Great camaraderie shown all day long. I had fun.

For those going on Saturday take some good photos if you have to do recoveries. Sunday March 14th we have our monthly meet up at Pleasanton Ridge Regional Park (1-3pm) and it seems like good timing to talk about recovery options and share experiences you had. I’m going to pull out recovery boards and also demonstrate safety steps for winching.

Unfortunately I cannot join the meetup today but here few shots from some rope and winch recoveries :
The trip was fun as we got stuck!

We had manual recoveries too :

Good trip. Fun times, nice meeting ya'll. Not enough time to get fully acquainted but here's hoping to seeing ya'll on the trails again!

Great way to learn your rigs capabilities in the snow and slush haha. And recovery techniques!

Recovery in action. Is that a Toyota being pulled out
I don’t know the owners of both rigs to tag.
