Default Off-road Trick

Last weekend, me and my friends try out a new path. At one obstacle, the five cars that participate can not be escaped. This obstacle in the form of steps as high as about one meter at an angle almost perpendicular. Of course, the surface of the path is a slippery mud.

If you were us, what should you do in a situation like this? Please participate and submit your comment.

i would put a narrower bumper for better approach angle. looks like the front of that bumper is digging into the mud.
some decent mud tires, lockers and good ol' horsepower and torque should get u out of there.

bigger tires so your diffs arent dragging the mud.

lockers

maybe use the winch (maybe no good winch points ahead?)

try staying out of the ruts

super charger and lots of speed!!!!!!

All the cars using full locker at the front and factory LS for rear. The red and silver car using 33 inches Super Swamper TSL tire and the Black one using 32 inch Simex Extreme Trekker. Another Black car using 35 inch Simex Extreme Trekker and finally use winch to escape.
