Looks to me like he has put rocks in front of his truck tires. May be camping there rather he planed to or not.

I cant believe someone is or was in that situation. People need to use their heads.

The hitch will articulate forward/back and side to side. To that degree? That's another question.

I think I could back it out if I could get enough traction to push it back up the hill. Dropping it in 4 low - maybe.

Yes, maybe. I'd try to back out but no guarantee. 1st I'd want to know how bad it is forward until a good road.

I think his hitch binding up is more of a problem than dragging on rocks/ground. You can always dig and clear away rocks. Can't fix that angle.

It may not be as bad as it looks. He may have taken the picture because it looks so bad.

Since we don't know the backstory it might be best to leave the insinuations behind.

Yes, he may be in jail. His wife said "turn here" and he did. Then again she may be under those rocks and he is happily camping with a dented truck and banged up 5er.

We will never know. I saw this picture over a year ago on this forum. Other than that I would be worried that when the rig got to where it was rolling forward that it might push the truck over the side.

A little Bobcat could get in there and make the inside of the turn a bit wider for him, assuming the big rocks were movable.

I looks like he may have even tighter hairpins ahead of him, though.

Did anyone notice that's the longest honkin' trailer in the history of Earth? And did anyone wonder what is ahead of him that he needs to get to so badly, that he took this route to begin with????

Is he maybe from the South???? (Hold My Beer And Watch This)

You are probably right. He would never been able to have gotten that far with a dually. Lmao
