Default Rollover recovery in the snow

Not the type of video i prefer to post, but it is what it is. Driving in the snow, slid off the road into a ditch and rolled onto the passenger side. It was not easy to get back on its feet, but in the end, once it was back on all 4s, all was well. Will not all...repairs needed, but it could have been so much worse.

Considering how steep the sides of the roads are in CO, you were really lucky it wasn't farther off the road. How much did it cost to be pulled back on the road? I saw one post somewhere that cost the owner over 10K to get it back on the road.

I hope it is reasonable. I had to pay several hundred to get a sports car "wrenched from a ditch". The ditch wasn't anywhere near as deep as the one you were in.
