MI37 to the rescue - again !

[Tom @ Snake River]

Got called out by our local sheriff's office Search and Rescue unit this afternoon. An elderly couple had spent the night out when they got stuck on a hunting trip.
They found them on snowmobiles only a 1/4 mile off the beaten path, they had got stuck in a huge mud hole. I had been running around in my H2 Hummer and a few other guys had large pick-ups in about 6" of blown and packed snow.
Getting a feel for my H2 in the snow and on trails that are packed down by snowmobiles and other vehicles. I finally went the 5 miles home and got the M37. The one guy had dug out the tire chains, but when I got there with my half worn out Michelin XL tires, I just dove into the snow and mud and left the other guys sitting on the road.
I cabled my rear end to a tree and winched the guy back up on the road with a single line.
It is unreal what a low=torque engine can do in combo with the Michelin XL tires compared to the smaller dia tires with a high torque engine.

I appoligize for no pics, when the Sheriff's office calls, we usually cut and run.
I tried a pic of my truck, but it says that the board attachment quota has been reached.

Great story Tom. Glad you and the M37 were there to help

Good job!

Stories like this one are exactly why I bought an M37.

Thanks for posting this Tom, the use of your M37 for such community service is an inspiration to all.

Tom, Since you live in America it is only natural that you pitched in to help, and I applaud you. Here abouts I offered to help the county with stuck boaters since I can run in 4" of water with my 4X4 boat. No dice they rather send out a Helicopter to pick up the family??? Too bad I won't ever run a Michelin tire on my M37.
