What the pics don't show you is the washout behind the rig, and the 250 foot drop that he COULD have slid down. Thankfully, dean was OK.

Dean-

Did anyone get pictures of the truck being righted? I still can't believe that thing came upright like that. It was perfect

Dont forget to mention that i offered to try to come up to help. Could have brought any tools needed to bend things back into drivable shape.. or even snacks and a sleeping bag.
I may have been on drugs... but i was willing to help!

You can call me a newb or whatever, but how do you end up 'inverted' on what looks like the trail you should've been upright on?
