In one of our rides, we were trying to get up a small opening uphill. This was what happened.

How did you get it out of there?

A few of us hung onto the front as we backed it out all the way down backwards.

Had the side fender damaged with a hole.

We know someone who would have just insisted on riding it
out until he broke an axle........................

You can't really tell from the pictures but the gradient was more than 45 degrees. The gap was clearly too narrow for the Grizzly, it was too narrow even on its side. But he had to keep going. He nearly flipped at one stage.

You don't need the skids on the bottom, you need them on the sides! lol
This is one spot where a nice lil 400 would be better. But it maybe even too narrow for any machinel.
Nice pics

Might return again with some shovel and pick axe. Half the climb is wide enough. We need to chip away the walls of the other half.

The location is in tropical Malaysia.

Got cha. That explains the vegetation and the red clay.
