    A tip from a guy that spent 20yr's on Puget Sound working with Danforth anchors. A 100lb anchor is good enough to hold a 100ft barge in 4ft swells with a real flat draw in 40knot wind. Completely bury the anchor in the sand or dirt, get the flutes buried completely. Leave the chain out or lock it in some boulders, hook a short loop choker to a block your looking at close to10 tons of hold. There is zero you will be able rescue of that weight. with your rigs to loose it. That anchor will fit in the back, or use 2 smaller ones in v shaped set. This is for a tail hold or a side pull block. Good luck on your adventures in recovery

    I think someone is having an issue with deception. He needs to figure out the width of his vehicle. Just staying as far to the high side as he can get would have prevented him from rolling it and the other sliding-off-the-edge incident he had. lol.
    My advice to everyone driving trails you don't know very well is to get out and take a look when you come across a narrow area. Just pull up to it and get out and walk past it and look back at your tire width to see where you need to place your tires. And when it's a sandy area like that, make sure your tires are as far away from the edge as you can possibly get them even if you have to run over some rocks or brush, and if the edge is really soft and you can't get far enough from it, then turn around because the edge can/will collapse as it looks like it did here. Glad he and his dog weren't hurt.

      Crashing your car solo has an impact on you, I’ve been there. I bet it was a long stressful day for him and when the car was back driving he let he’s guard down just from the adrenaline dump. A roll over really messes with your brain even if your physically fine, accidents happen that’s why they’re called accidents lol

      When they show the jeep upside-down, it is easy to imagine anyone ending up in that kind of situation. By the end of the video, it is easy to imagine how that particular person ended up in that situation.

    That was an excellent recovery. Made it look easy, when at first I was thinking there was no way to go to get that out. Then again it was a Jeep so just getting 2 tires on the ground and it drives itself out!

They actually had to have someone go check if it was in park or not. It wasn't. It could have rolled down the hill when it was flipped back on it's wheels.
