Me pulling a members rig down off of a slope/hill he drove up.
His rear bumper dug in and made the rig stuck until my winch came to the rescue.

Dude, it's just a dirt hill in some lot. I applaud the Tread Lightly effort though.

No erosion there.
That is a sand & gravel pit.
It is meant to get dug up.
They come in with backhoes and dig up scoops to work on projects.
The forest service knows all about it.

I am very lucky.
Greenwater is only 35 minutes or so from me, all almost on the same road I live on.

I have been going there since the mid 80s, and no way have I covered it all.
There are hundreds of miles of trails/logging roads, and old overgrown logging roads up there to explore.

Corey, how about deleting all of these just random comments in here (including this one). There should be only pictures and videos in here, not a bunch of people bickering about stuff and people saying they haven't gotten stuck.

Me in Central Florida, My buddy went through in 4Wd and I got cocky cause I got more clearance and went in 2WD then thought I could just throw it into 4 and pull out. Boy was I wrong!

Doesnt look bad but them 33's cant fit in them 35+ ruts.

This was one of those "it doesnt look real deep" instances. I had judged the depth of this mudhole off of the depths of the others which were considerably more shallow. Just a reminder to ALWAYS check the depth before going into something that you havent been through before... even if it looks really shallow. I went in and the front end of my truck just dropped... Needless to say I wasnt able to just drive out of that one... These are the pictures that turned out the best the others are too dark to see anything



I ended up with a small pond on my floor and at the end of the day my truck was brown...instead of blue



Visibilty was pretty minimal... lol
