👀👀👀Can you see it?!?!👀👀👀

Neither could we to start with.
We don’t get chance to share many jobs- but this was crazy enough to share.
A CFMoto 520s quad come unstuck on a trail on the owners very rural trail. 🛺
We headed out to what we was told a 45ft embankment on a slope.
When we arrived and eventually found the quad we found ourselves with a slightly challenging recovery. With the quad being across fields and finally some 60+meters into a valley.
We returned to base to get a pair of 4x4s some man power and a whole lot of equipment.
We Reattended the following day- travelled across two fields- removed a section of fence and set up the 4x4s- one at the top of the field- anchoring the second and able to assist it back up the slope. Once the second was in place we joined many winch extensions and set to making a path for the quad to come up out of the valley. With the right prep and good team work we got the quad out with no additional damage. The owner was involved through out and certainly was a character- 80 years old- got thrown of the quad on its tumble and was still there wanting to help 😆
