      and Rudy is driving it.....and is attached by a long rope...
      Matt's not a really happy chappie in the Morrvair....
      concerned about the steepness and the high gear ratio in the transfer case...

    So the first section of that road is a 400ft rise in ~500 ft, which is ~38.7°. The point where he got stuck to the top is a ~500 ft rise over 400ft run, which is ~51.3° angle. Source, utah geological survey maps for elevation and scaling. Then run rise over run for grade, then inverse tangent for percentage.
    Easily could tell how sketch it was due to Matt's face.

    I got my 4 seat Can Am stuck sideways on a nasty sidehill outside of Vegas about 6 months ago and this reminds me of it. I sent a photo to my dad and he was super confident we'd get it out easy. His XJ couldn't even make it up traction was so bad and he quickly realized the photo didnt do it justice. Took 3 UTVs with winches hooked up to each other to prevent being pulled down this huge wash. Been offroading all my life, but nature can humble you real quick.
