This sled is not the burnt down turbo. Both sleds just so happen to go down in the same area. The sled in the pic did not have the collar update done on it yet.

My bad.

The turbo was an XP. Not a Pro.

I would like to know the number of the recovery company. Does anyone know that.

I mean, Van Epps is deep, but Deep enough to call in a chopper on a bluebird day instead of figuring out a tow out?

It was in a little further than Van Epps, that tri-angle surrounded by wilderness. Rumor is they returned one day to try to tow out, no cigar.......Expensive tow rope for sure.....
