I don't have a picture but I was once bogged on the side of a hill, after the front of the car slid sideways, and the wheels dug in. unable to be snatched forwards, and if I drove backwards I was sure to roll

How I got there.
Mates saying "just drive it you big girl"

How I got out.
Put a strap on the side of the car so if I started to roll I wouldn't go over.
Used my mates winch to skull drag the back end around until it was pointing back down the hill
Had to be winched Down the hill because my wheels were dug in that deep.

What I learned.
Safety first. I did start to roll and the strap caught me

Don't listen to my mates

Even if your going for a quick mud run in the afternoon, make sure someone has a camera!

How
Thought I was driving on solid ground, I didn't realise that the crusty topped boghole (you can see it in the pic) extended to
Where my wheel was going

How I got out
I'm not telling, it's too embarrassing!

What I learned
Pay more attention instead of spending half you time watching your uncle struggling to get through the next but of track

Cheers

How
I though my mate locked the hubs, but he hadn't. So I was only in 2wd and slipped into the hole on the side (the pic shows after I had reversed in further In an attempt to reverse out the ditch


How I got out

I dug a lot of dirt out of the way

What I learned
Check my hubs myself.
Dad gets annoyed when our fourby run gets stopped 2 minutes in
