How far away are you from someone who owners a tow truck ? If not to far, might be worth a call to see if they could safely get it upright for you, and then flatbed it to your place so you could carefully take your time to try and getting it running once again.

Scotch the wheels your pulling it up on.

I,ve never heard that term before, what does it mean ?

I would first Spin trim around it to have a better idea of the ground contour and be able to have a clearer view when pulling on it. Also less things to trip on when doing the job.

Glad to hear you weren't hurt.

From the pictures, the slope doesn't look that steep. If you don't mind could you dissect what happened. Wheel in hole, loader too high, more slope that it looks like???? I just try to learn as much as I can from others.

I was tired and in a hurry but Stupidity was the root cause.
It's steep slope going into the bottoms. Varies between 25% and 35%. I was blading the road because it had some deep washes. I was blading uphill and realized I neglected to put it in range one. Got to a water bar where it was a bit leveler and switched to range one. Instead of continuing up the hill I decided to back blade a spot ( super stupid). Don't have mirrors so was twisted in the seat. Backed off the water bar and she started free wheeling. Must have jumped into neutral ( my fault not the tractors). My brakes aren't the best so something had to give. No way I would have survived the stop if I continued the ride down the hill. I tried a controlled turn and she rolled over. I was very lucky. Not sure if I jammed the loader down to see if that would slow me down or not. The box blade was not set to back cut so it just bounced. Ive used tractors since I was a kid, 60+ now. So many errors and I call myself careful.

setting the parking BRAKE is a great idea!
I swear the auto correct on my phone is out to get me, since the last update its been changing works, even simple things such as "the", and that's after correcting it multiple times!

Appreciate all of the suggestions. Wouldn't have made it this far without this groups help. Couple of photos of the righted tractor and my capstan winch.
24 hours later and I got her back on her wheels. Any suggestions on the best way to slide her backend around so she's more up and down the hill where maybe I can winch her up top?
