RTH: Kamas Snow Recovery

[cruiseroutfit]

Real Time Help Recovery Request: A friend has a coworker that is stuck on the Hoyt Peak Road (near Kamas). He slid a tire (F150) off the snow covered road and will need a tug or winch to pull him back on the road. They are not in immediate danger and are salvaging some hunting time while they wait for help. Anyone available this afternoon for a quick run?

I love recoveries... as long as it's not me that needs to be recovered! I don't get off work until 6 tonight...

It seems like this has been covered, but if you want a road trip buddy vehicle, I can help

 

[Herzog]

I’m in Kamas. Let me know I can likely get away at some point with the buggy if it’s not too far. Trailer is snowed in

 

[Herzog]

Do you have coordinates?

 

[RogueJeepr]

That would be very helpful. Coordinates are in bound but he's on the Hoyt Peak Road. What is your availability like this afternoon/evening?

Sweet, where will you be at 5PM?

 

[cruiseroutfit]

This is a rough coordinate but it's near here: 40.672172, -111.216751

I know where Hoyt Peak is, but no clue on the "Road" part. I don't have windows so depending on how late I could brave the cold and head out

 

[Herzog]

What time are you estimating?

 

[jeeper]

I am available any time today. My winch ran off with her other boyfriend this morning, but is back in sandy so I can pick it up. I could be a good buddy vehicle, or am a good shotgun rider with willing hands.
However, my ground clearance isn't awesome, so if it's deep snow I would be a plow..

 

[Herzog]

How many vehicles do they need? I might do a recon right now. Just confirmed that I’ll be avail this evening too.

Sounds like a simple winch out to me. If you recon, you will probably just solve the problem while there..

The driver is now down in SLC waiting to go back and rescue it. I'm available in my BJ74 or FJ40, just need one other rig to be safe. The stuck truck is here:
40.67454, -111.23793

It looks like you drive a 2.5 miles north of Kamas proper and turn right on 2700N and climb up from there.

Sound like Shane and Kurt can have it handled..
if you want a ride along give me a call or text.

 

[Herzog]

Ah I was wondering if they went up via Samak or just above HST

 

[cruiseroutfit]

Leaving SLC now, meeting Shane. We'll update just as soon as he is out. If you don't hear from is by 6pm, come get us
