We are in the process of enlarging our pond so I decieded to try and get some of the muck out of the existing pond. 4WD doesn't do you much good when you get high centered.

Been there! With the 100 year drought we are having here in Georgia I have been cleaning some sediment out of our pond. Found myself in your situation a couple of time or at least almost. So far using the loader curl and/or the backhoe I have been able to work myself out. Let us know how you make the recovery.

Ford pickup and a long rope!!!

 

[Grrrr]

Yep, I think that was one for a big pull from another vehicule

I think the loader might just sink down in the mud.

Widgeonus:

You looked pretty relaxed in your picture relative to your "situation" . Glad you got out. It is all part of the learning curve . Jay

You seriously aren't sitting on that tractor barefoot I hope....

 

[Widgeonus]

shoes got tossed on the bank because I was about to jump in the mud

Some years back there was a fellow from "Down Under" in about the same predicament.

His boots are still somewhere in the Goop!

Had similar experiences in swampy areas, sometimes I use the truck to pull out the tractor and sometimes I use the tractor to pull out the truck. Sometimes in the mud and sometimes in the snow.

All new tractor owners eventually get stuck.....it's kind of a ritual !! You mentioned earlier you "Work Of Shore" ! Thats probably why you look so relaxed. This is why they call it 'Getting Your Feet Wet!!" Stay Safe,

You don't have to be "new" to get stuck. At least I've been pretty good at it now and then over over the last 30 or so years.like they say there are those that are gonna get stuck and those that are gonna get stuck again.

I almost was in that situation today. Went to push some logs and things out from a "dry" squishy area. Got 1/2 way and the pushing was slowing down, 3/4 across and the tires were loading up so I raised the bucket and headed back. Started sinking. SNIT! Forward was semi-blocked by the stuck I was pushing, but that was the only way out. Had to crab walk forward with the bucket, but got out. Whew!
