#flashbackfriday – August 26 2012, 4W613 Abandoned Truck Removal

#flashbackfriday –
10 years ago today on August 26 2012, we did the 4W613 Abandoned Truck Removal.

Someone left their truck on 4 wheel drive trail 613 south of Strobach Mountain in the fall of 2011. The Department of Natural Resources had to go through the legal stuff to be able to move it. By the time we were allowed to move the truck to the main road, it had been vandalized, stripped and shot up. We put tires on it and broke the steering loose. We winched it on the trail. Josh from the Yakima Ridgerunners push the truck close to 4 miles on 4×4 trails that had tight spots to the main Green Dot road so a tow truck could pick it up.
