SxS Down Pritchett On The Trailer

We got a call about a SxS that flipped on Axle Hill on Pritchett Canyon trail. We were told one front tire wasn't attached. So we took the wrecker and the trailer in to get it. We got through down and dirty and up chewy hill without issue. We had to winch up rocker knicker after a couple attempts. Then we got to axle hill and got it loaded on the trailer. We started down and got to rocker knocker and it was so dug out I didn't want to drop it straight down. So we went down the traditional up line. I've personally never done it, and I'm certain nobody has ever done it with a trailer. Then we got to chewy hill pretty easy, then repelled down it with the rear winch. We had to use the winch to get up out of down and dirty. Then a pretty easy drive back to the trailhead. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

The tidbits at the end of the vid hearken to some awesome wisecracking. (5) I'll stop now.

I read an article a few days ago, don't remember the source, that a majority of the trails have been closed already. Supposedly due to the disturbance of hikers from the dust, noise, and high speed danger. Going off trail and leaving trash is a big part too. Basically, SXS ruining it for everyone else. Not all, but the majority. They should really just open a SXS park so they can destroy their own area and stop thrashing our trails.
