Stuck in snow, derbyshire. dales head, winch req

Came off the track between the A53 and cat and fiddle
Signed to dales head
Need winching back onto road
Flight to Aberdeen tonight so unless rapid response will have to leave to tomorrow evening.

I don't have a winch and am about an hour away, but can help out if no one closer can.

Waldo, can you PM me exact location and contact number please?

Am travelling - so not good connection.
Name if nearest big town?

BB can yu handle this? Txt if necessary. OP tel no?

Google suggests it's an equal distance between Buxton and Macc.

I have straps and stuff if he reckons he can be pulled out without a winch.

Come on Waldo, location and phone number please....

Asking if they can assist tomorrow because they are closest to where I think Waldo is.

James there's 7 others closer than you so hopefully someone can step up seeing as we have a bit of time

I am having to get on a flight to Aberdeen for an interview now and will not be back until tomorrow evening (earliest 5pm at vehicle) however my dad is available all day.

We're looking for a preferably winch equipped landy that can give Waldo a pull near Buxton tomorrow after 5pm.

Just curious..... is the casualty level with the road? or below road level?
What is the average length of landy-winch cable?

Below road level
Worst case I could run my own winch cable under the axles and out the back, secure it with a shackle to prevent it sliding across into the wheels

Anyone know and have a number for Lampro and/or scotty28176?

They've volunteered for lzir but the numbers have disappeared

I would suggest at least 2, poss 3 vehicles. At least to use as anchors and possibly cable extensions. Roped together.

Pm them for info?

I'm not really free tomorrow, have normal work, then pub work in the evening. I can probably spare a couple of hours mid afternoon if you really need me though
