h the fun your going to have getting a track loader out . To save a lot of fussen cussen , my best advice it to find someone with a dozer twice the size as the track loader that has a winch and snatch blocks . Then also take a chain saw and start cutting logs twice as wide as the pads on the loader . Over the younger years of working in the oil patch around here i became and expert on getting stuck equipment out of the mud . You have never lived till ya have to pull and Adico (sp) self drive drilling rig that weighed in at over 210000 lbs stuck in the mud five feet deep . Two 850 john Deere dozers with Hyster W7 F winches and a D7G with a W 7 F winch . Each winch had 70000 lbs of line pull and each one was double snatched blocked with 1 1/8 Blue wrap drill line . and seeing what happens when you break a inch and a eight cable . Now you did not say what size track loader ?? is it a 10000lb machine or is it a 50000 lb machine . If it was summer time then you MIGHT get a couple big wreckers close . If it is a small one you MIGHT be able to get a forty to fifty thousand pound excavator close and dig it and help pull it . Track loaders are not soft ground friendly , even LGP dozers have there limits . As it was once said a man has got to know his limits.

Today's Featured Article - Reflections of the Fifties - by "Country" Elliott. I remember rowing up in the 1950�s in a small, rural town in northwestern New Jersey. The closest town to ours was only 3 miles away, and there were seven dairy farms in the areas of these two country towns.
