Stuck in mud and almost out of gas

Saturday, December 28th, 2024, at 21:05 p.m. (PT), we received a request for help with an offroad recovery in Klamath, Oregon. The requester, Owen Hollingsworth, submitted the following information: “I’m on Jaguar Ln right past the pond stuck in the mud all day long Trying to get firewood, and I’m basically out of gas as well, but I only live up the road on Kildeer dr / I’m with the vehicle / I can help cover the cost of fuel.”

Our administrator, David Mrak, 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 volunteers, we had Isaac Nunez and his crew and Matt Spencer taking over the recovery.

We later learned Kacee Wyatt, from the klamath falls offroad recovery, got him out.

Later, Matt, who stayed in contact with the requester, informed us in the lobby that the requester’s brother was planning to bring him fuel. With the vehicle confirmed to be free, the request was closed.

We want to thank Kacee, who got the requester out, and also all other volunteers who network to get this done. Awesome job.
