Resolved Stuck outside of Wells NV in Ruby Valley on Eureka NV to Bonneville Flats trail and desperate for help recovering jeep.

[GrizzledAdams]

Jeep rear fell into deep washout hole in road. I have been trying to self recover for 2 days. I’m near an old mine and cobbled together scraps of wood to shore up the washout, but failed and jeep is now dangling in the deep hole from the winch line. Anybody in the area that can assist or let me know of someone to call for help? Hunters found me and convinced me to ride with them into town to get rested and re-charged and get help. In Wells NV now. If you are near me and can assist with spotting and winching, I would be very happy to see you! 4057197060 is my mobile. Thanks in advance for any help or support you can provide. Ryan

UPDATE: I’m told a volunteer is enroute to come help me now. I’m 6.8 miles and 3.5 hrs away from the jeep right now and walking that way. If anyone is around and interested in lending a hand - I’d love to have! I feel this is going to be a very intensive recovery.

Please post the coordinates so members know where to go if they can make it.

Is this still an active alert or has the Jeep been recovered? Does anyone know anything? @GrizzledAdams can you please give us an update? Thank you!

Thanks @Jim SoG

I would like to take this alert as an opportunity to point out once again that if someone needs help, the alert function of this app is a really good feature of the app.

However, in order to be able to help promptly and adequately, important and precise information is required. Information on the exact situation, exact location, what has already been attempted and what exactly is needed as well as communication options for reaching the person seeking help and updates on the situation during the operation.

Have a good trip and stay safe!
