Default Helping a Raptor...

As the Bobcaygeon run was too short of a notice and fell through, we had time to help a Ford Raptor get out of a mud pit. Actually all credit goes to 2Summer. Without a winch, it just wouldn't budge.

Enjoy

All in all, it was an interesting way to start the weekend. The guy was stuck for like almost 9hrs before the Rubi's came to save the day .

What KigWrangler forgot to mention is that before we hooked up the winch, we snaped 2 tow/recovery staps trying to snatch the truck out. Once that happened we broke out the tack and pulley and used 4Bummers rig as the anchor point and out she came

Here's some photo's after we finished winching him out...

He went over to the Bowmanville Arena, there was a charity car cleaning day going on and they had 3 fire hoses clean the truck right up. Pretty fun day really.
