Bogged: how you got in and out again

[Flo-w]

I've looked through the bigger "bogged" threads here but they all seem to be abandoned (last post 2-3 years old). So here goes a new one.

I'd be interested in a thread which shows where you guys got bogged, why you got bogged, how you got out and really what you've learned.

I finally got myself bogged for the first time and now I feel like a real man.
Of course it was stupid and of course it could have been avoided. But I just wanted to try that steepest slope.

I learned that when all 4 wheels are in the air the car doesn't drive. Go figure.
Also that the winch alone won't get me out of all situations.
Lastly that trying to get back first is a good idea.
