Me and my buddy went to check out Maple. Got stuck in deep snow and 4wd isn't working. Any help?

Wareham PD had to come pick us up in a Humvee and they got stuck. If someone can come help me get it out I would be greatly appreciative, even lost my phone in the mix. SOS

Sounds like you need a shovel, hi-lift, and a CB radio.
Dig out under the jeep enough to crawl under and manually shift the transfer case into 4WD.
Then dig out the rest of jeep. Use hi-lift as a winch, or lift jeep at center of bumper then push jeep over, tipping the jack.

How deep is the snow?

You're a long way from home Florida.

I'm going back today with a shovel, and hopefully another truck. I didn't expect it to be too bad last night, just kind of checking the trails out. Nat'l Guard had to come rescue us at 3:30... Too bad I was under the impression he would pull me out too.

You were on trails? I haven't touched the woods in over a month. You can't go far in 3-4ft of snow.

jeepheep1

Yeah, this wasn't my best move so far. This almost as good as the first time I had my XJ on it's side and went out without another Jeep.

If the snow is bumper deep your not going anywhere if you do its just gonna plow up snow tell you get stuck.

So do you plan on driving out from KY to help pull me out? Or are you just joining in with the rest of the peanut gallery? The thread title was pretty clear..

XJlimitedx99

This time you deserve the peanut gallery. You think people on the Internet will come pull you out? That's what the rig behind you on the trail is for.

It was worth a shot, and plus people will do just about anything for money. Sorry I expected anything more than a little common courtesy.

Live and learn. At least everyone was ok and you refrained from bringing an infant with.
