Turned into Hills Excavating having to rescue me :lmao:

I got it stuck around 9pm sunday....and it was pulled from earth's grasp about noon monday. The entire evening was spent digging with sticks to no prevail :ohwell:
To the person who will be nameless i sincerely thank you for trying to pull me out with your blazer.....only to get stuck yourself :huggy:
If EVER you need ANYTHING I will be in your debt
Now..for lessons learned..
1...NEVER wheel alone
2...bring supplies (i was starving to death and almost died of thirst)
3...bring equipment (several "walking" trips a half mile+ to the main road to get tow straps come-alongs')
4...buy a dayum winch, (perfectly good trees only several yards away just begging to help)

Believe it or now the beast did remarkably well in wooded terrain overcoming steep inclines as well as vertical/horizontal flexing, although it aint worth a bucket of eyeballs when you back into a knee deep+ marsh

Seeing that you have a white Hummer I was hoping that
you would have got it a lot dirtier, except for the back
wheels I have hit a puddle with ours and have trashed it.

Here's a few more for you, if you plan on ever encountering such terrain again:

-Front Locker
-Mud tires
-Remove the tube steps

Had you had the mud tires and front/rear lockers engaged, you very well could kept pulling through

Sorry you got stuck Bro:(
