Glad you got out ok,sounds like a long tough day.Hope your buddies help get the sled out
My first and last ride for a while. I keep getting asked what happened....
- Thread starter justpinit907
- Start date
A fellow told me he took the skies off his sled and tied to his boots to get out, said he would not have made it otherwise. This was 20 years ago, no cell, ect.

Hey Boony, thanks for the tip
glad you made it out, i keep a strobe on my pack should a situation like that arrive. just flip it on and i would hope it would make finding me easier.
Glad to hear your ok!! one of your buds should have ridden out with you If a guy in our group has problems someone will always go back with them. I may suck but having someone die would suck worse

No I was never a boy scout. I heard too many stories about the "Scout Leaders" LMFAO!!!! I just have one hell of a grandfather that taught me a lot about the woods. He once crawled into a buffalo in the Delta area when it was about -40* after he killed it in order to warm up before hauling it out on a sled.
You can have the truck bro. But you have to take the payments too! ha!
No dice today on getting the sled out. I wasn't able to get the wide track to where the Apex is. I'm headed back out tomorrow morning for another attempt with a little more help then I had today.
I'm glad you made it out OK but I wish I had read this before heading out today. I had a nasty run in with a creek today riding out solo too...I'm a little beat up and wouldn't be much good on a rescue crew but if you need someone to haul the rope or do a photo shoot I'm there.
Shoot me a PM, I'll check back later tonight. (sleds still on the trailer)
glad to hear your ok, I would not want to have walked out from there.
glad you made it out...hope it gets people to think..sure got me...
Finally got my sled out after two days of work. I don't have the pictures up yet but ICR will appreciate them since I used a Gen II 700 RMK to tow out the SC Apex. Upon further inspection I found quite a bit of carnage from the drop.... Needless to say, I am not happy.
but you are alive
thanks for sharing

Wow, great survival story, glad you made it out ok.
thanks for sharing....which goes to prove the saying, "your best survival equipment is between your ears"....keeping your cool (no pun intended) in a difficult situation, being objective and analyzing your options wisely will overcome most adversities....taking things from your sled that you might need, using some sort of container to take a little gas for a fire starter with you could easily mean the difference between making it and not....every survival situation has its' own unique circumstances, those who are prepared at least at some level and have thought about it beforehand have a significant advantage when the hamburger hits the fan
Wow . Riding back alone is never a good Idea , glad you're ok ! What parts do you need to get it going , let me know if I can help .
