Sorry for the late reply we are all sorted now thanks for everyone's help! There was 4 people on 2 trucks we didn't go alone! We both have decent tyres and both winched up but the snow was that deep we struggled

it maybe that people are reluctant to help someone who joined just to get rescued

Having attended a fair few transport related chemical emergencies over the years I can confidently say that no matter how well prepared you think you are, it's never enough. Also, no matter how good the info received is, even when that info is provided by the Police or Fire Service, it is often wrong or incomplete. For any one individual to attempt a recovery in an off road location in conditions like that would be complete madness. I'm not surprised there wasn't a flood of volunteers. I think LZIR is a great idea but there needs to be controls and rules.

The controls and rules are decided by the individuals involved.
If you don’t want to go alone, that is fine by us. We just inform local peeps and leave it to you to decide.

True - but on the bright side, someone would have got an off road ready motor at a knock down price
Every cloud and all that
I’ll give you a for instance
About 3 year ago, I drove 100 mile each way to rescue a defender who had gone off the side of the road in the peaks, we eventually got the defender out of the ditch and the drivers father gave us £20,
And as far as I know the rescued person hasn’t been back on here since,
It turns into a cheap rescue service for people

You didn’t have to go. It was your choice.
100 miles ea way is a long trip. Good on you.
One assumes you didnt do it for the money?
