Mule In The Mud

We got our mule stuck in the mud at the Durhamtown Military Vehicle Rally this weekend. Thanks to our rescuers in the Deuce.

Wow, now that's MUD! I almost got my mule stuck in mud that deep but it wasn''t that wet. Just put it in compound low, 1st gear and got out and pushed with the wheels turning. Got out of that mess, but learned a lesson about mud.

That's that soupy slop that gets hung up in every nook and cranny too. That stuff is fun until you have to get out and hook up a tow rope. You know it's good when you feel it running in the top of your boots.

I wonder if tire chains would have helped?I can remember using them when working for this line contractor, getting in the back country with the digger trucks,work trucks.

I have had mine stuck in the wet black muck, but nothing like that. Thank goodness I have a winch on mine.
