This mountain was my back yard growing up. We lived a few hundred yards away from where this happened. I have taken 3 and 4 Wheelers up "Little Mountain Trail" many times. That trail was never meant for anything bigger than an ATV and even an ATV is sketchy as can be. Kuddos to you guys for getting that jeep off the mountain without rolling it straight down to the bottom.

That was brutal to say the least. I trained as a recovery specialist in the military. Just an idea for you guys drive stakes or steel rods in the ground in the shape of bowling pins. Link them together with your recovery rope and you'll have a good firm anchor point a lot better than bushes. I'm familiar with the desert and I know it's gonna be hard but much safer and a good anchor point. For the extremely dangerous situations like this. That system is used to recover 60 ton tanks.

I would agree that this was the recovery where I’d seen Matt the most challenged and a bit stressed, for obvious reasons. But the plan he ingeniously came up with on how to move the Jeep from that place of imminent death, back onto the road using mostly manpower and ropes, is imo instantly the stuff of Legend. Matt’s WISDOM just blew me the heck away. And RUDY was pretty darn impressive here too in everything he does. I just have to say that this episode was SO EPIC that this Channels content EASily rivals any sort of good television program you may like watching written, produced and directed by high paid people with such titles. But those “professionals” can’t hold a candle to what everyone in the family contributes, particularly our off screen editor - (I don’t know if it’s the same guy as they’d shown before or not. Anyway - Long Live Matt and his family and all the extras and this channel for as long as they want to continue with it👍👍👍👍.

Felt like I was there with you every second until the red Jeep was off the edge and just when I thought it was over the Jeep sport backing up gave me more wrenching; but then again I almost rolled down Mt. Greylock in Massachusetts and had to be yanked so I guess I was already previously traumatized. Thanks great job best one yet.

I had a similar incident with a super duty off the trail and didn’t have anything to snatch off of. I resorted back to what we had with us. I lifted the back of the truck with a Hilift jack as high as i could, then pushed it over towards the trail. About 8 times and the back end was on the trail. Then pulled it backwards until the front came up. You guys did great, people probably don’t realize how close to the “edge” of destruction you were the whole time. Later

So my brother Kevin, who is no longer with us, built cell phone towers for decades. He was revered for his 'building roads' skills. THESE were the kind of roads he built, walked up and down, and drove on for years. He built the roads, the towers, refilled the generators.... Brought back alot of memories for me. We people take cell phones for granted. But without people like my brother building these roads and installing these towers...where would we be. Ryan is a cool ass dude. Kudos to all of you for helping him and getting it done safely.

My dad and I took his 50” side by side up that same road. We’ve always called it Little Mountain Trail. It’s the scariest thing I’ve ever experienced, and that’s on only 50”. After the turn, you’re looking at a mountain ridge steeper than 45 degrees and loose slate rock that our side by side sent shooting down the road as we tried to climb. This must have been terrifying. I think the key ingredient to making it up the mountain is a Beto’s Burrito, as that’s what we always eat before we head up this trail on the deer hunt 🤣
