Better get Karma points

I was heading up a canyon road to a trail head so I could snowshoe. It is basically a 1 lane gravel road and it does not get plowed in the winter. I was about a quarter mile past any sort of turn around area when I came upon a lady who was stuck. She had no business being where she was in a low to the ground car. Long story short after about 2 hours of digging and pulling, myself and 2 other people who showed up got her unstuck and back out of the canyon. The lady was soaked in her blue jeans and getting cold. There is a saying here "in the mountains cotton kills". Your clothes get wet, don't dry and hypothermia sets in. Anyway she is safe and sound. I never made it to snowshoe, I was tired. I figure about 10 karma points is in order :)

I agree!!!

It's nice to know there are still people who will help, no matter the MAJOR INCONVENIENCE!

Some angels have wings, some have snow shoes.

Way to go, Ron - You also probably got a lot more exercise that way! She is one lucky lady....

I hope if I'm ever stuck somewhere in the boonies that I run into you Ron! She was a lucky lady.

Two hour helping someone get unstuck must have burned lots of calories. Lucky others showed up to help. She’s very lucky to have had help.

It would have been a cold swim here in the UK, so much rain and flooding. Glad she was safe and sound. Xx
