We got to the camp site at about 9:30 pm so we ate dinner and went to sleep. In the morning I woke up and started playing in this mud pit. Joe finally heard my truck and woke up just in time to see me stuck in the pit. We tried to use his truck to pull me out but it didnt work. We tried forward and backwards but either way wouldnt work. So we finally broke out the come-a-long. I have a good chain come-a-long so I fealt very safe using it. I tried to pull it with the come-a-long but its wasnt going anywhere. So I had Joe run the come-a-long and I attempted to drive forward. This worked very well. We finally got it out after about 15 feet of pulling.

First we came to Hogs Back. We got up the trail and seen that there was no way that we could go up and decided to turn back. We drove down the road a little further in search of the next trail, but the one that I was looking for could not be found. So we drove back towards camp and came across the other side of Hogs Back. I started to drive down and seen that Joe could not make it so I told him to head back to the road and I will continue down the trail. Pics Below

As you can see from the pics, this is a very tight squeeze. I was scraping the side of my truck half way through. I was worried that the tree roots sticking out of the bank were going to rip up the fiberglass. But since I am a "run it til it breaks" kinda person, I kept going. Since Joe wasnt there I had to stop and get out to take the pics myself.

I decided to go through the pit that everyone else was getting stuck in last weekend. I went through several time without a problem. Later the S10 got stuck in there and I had to pull him out.
