Help! Im stuck! In vermont!
Anyone close by to chittenden county, Vermont?!?!
Winch would be best, but a large towstrap would work too.
Im in some mud with water, and my front left tire found a hole and is buried. The other 3 wheels arent.
This is the worse way of introducing myself...
I could also give you some money or gas.

Do they come out onto trails?
Or how much cable do they got on their spool? Im guessing a good 300-400 feet would work...hopefully...

some companies around here do but there is a lot of river bottoms here. Some times they carry extra cable to add to what is on the spool. Sorry cant be of better help. May even try to get a hylift jack or a com a long and some chain.

Truth be told, I was actually turning around to "unstick" a friend who just got stuck...then I got stuck MUCH worse. Someone else got my friend out, but couldnt "unstick" me.
Half my front axle is covered in sand, under water...
Im am in the process of finding wrecker services that include offroad recovery.

I am out, and in one piece.
I would like to thank, Pitbulld45, for giving me the idea of checking out wrecker services. I really didnt think anyone had offroad capable tow trucks.

Starts at $150 and goes up from there depending on how stuck you are.
Mine was $200. They had to use dual 8000lb winches and pull me out backwards.
I never thought seeing my front tire again, would make me so happy, lol.
I have 31's on my XJ, and the water was still 5-6" over my tire and my front diff was swallowed up by the mud mix.
My friend did get pics...but we're trying to get those off of his phone.
And I will post those if I get a chance too.
