There's stuck, and then there's Saskatchewan gumbo stuck

  1. Why are there no wheels visible on the right hand side(facing) of the blue tractor?

    1. At least one of them is visible, though it looks like a powdered chocolate donut.

  2. All eight tires are fully encapsulated with the sticky mud. Often the rescue equipment has to be staged 100’s of yards away with multiple units pulling in series. This happens often , here in Saskatchewan.

    1. I saw a guy stuck in the Lake Mead Nevada mud, the guy pulling him out had a really really long cable!
      He'd done it before :-)

    2. Fort Mac has similar issues with the muskeg.

  3. Even worse, the outside right front dual is off the rim. I've had tractors stuck up to the frame and once had to pull out a fertilizer floater that was stuck up to the frame. We used two front wheel assist tractors on that one. I told the operator to stay away from the wet area until he was almost empty so the doofus headed into that area first.
