Deep snow sliding off-road to a drop-off

Thursday, November 21st, 2024, at 10:31 a.m. (PT), we received a request for help with an offroad recovery in Washington. The requester, Ryan John, submitted the following information: “Dodge Ram 1500 deep snow sliding off-road to a drop-off / 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 55-mile radius.

This request came late at night. We shared it with a few local volunteers and invited Benjamin from our friends at WORN to assist.

Benjamin immediately began reaching out to volunteers within their network while we stayed in contact with the requester to coordinate efforts. By 10:55 p.m., Benjamin had assembled a team of volunteers who were ready to head to the requester. At 1:00 a.m., Benjamin updated us that the recovery was successfully completed.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Benjamin and all the incredible volunteers from WORN. As always, you all are amazing!
