got my truck stuck first time today!

i got stuck today while wheeling in this tight trail. i've gone through this rut before, actually that morning i went through it twice while 2 inches of snow was on ground. in afternoon warms up and melts slush, ice, and muck. but went in slow and tried to ride on top of rut then it slipped off and bam. wouldn't move an inch, luckily before i started calling people, a lifted white f250 on 35" comes up and happily gets me out. sorry about long story some pics-

thanks this trail was very tight, more than half the time i had to fold both mirrors in to get by.the best part was watching the f250 build its own trail out by plowing a couple small pines over those old trucks are beastly

I guess you was trying to swing a little closer to the tree on the drivers side to stay out of the rut?

I know how you feel. This trail that I usually go to I have to fold my mirrors in most of the time. We actually have to go through a very narrow tunnel with about a foot on either side of hte truck. Its definately not meant for full size rigs. Looks like you need some mud tires, too.

exactly i was going up on the other ruts was doing good but it makes a hard right turn and the bank on the passanger side was a lil longer and it actually slipped right in them. worst thing to do should have just powered my way through like last time. oh well lesson
