Wednesday, July 30th, 2025, at 6:20 p.m. (ET), we received a request for help with an offroad recovery in New Jersey. The requester, Shafi Akhtar, submitted the following information: “Stuck in mud in the two towers loop on ONX / I’m with the vehicle”
Our administrator, Al Fontan, contacted the requester and verified the contact information provided, GPS location, and current situation before sending the request to local volunteers. In this particular recovery, we contacted volunteers within a 20-mile radius.
From the group of contacted local volunteers we had Frank Balinski taking over the recovery. He later told us it was a simple winch out.
The recovery was closed by 8:20 p.m., Frank was about 10 miles away from Shafi. We want to thank Frank for helping with this recovery. Awesome job.
