Road 379C multi-vehicle pileup recovery

- Sunday the 20th a team from Colorado 4x4 Rescue and Recovery spent a VERY long day on Road 379 in Teller County. This road is just south of Almagre Mountain for geographic reference.
Five trucks were out on this trail when they came upon one of the steep downhill sections that was essentially just an ice chute. The truck at the back of the line managed to stop a few hundred feet back, but the front four piled up on each other as one long wreck at the bottom of the chute.
All responder vehicles were chained up on all four tires to avoid becoming another wreck on a wreck. Once on scene, the team had to work straightening out some bumpers, and winch the vehicles apart one by one to untangle them from each other.
Fairly certain this is the organization's first pileup wreck/recovery.
7 team members were on scene for this mission, along with 1 radio monitor and 3 dispatchers, keeping an eye on this mission as it progressed throughout the day. A total of 136 man hours were logged for this with the first responder in route at approximately 7 AM, and the last responder was home by about 11 PM.

Mahalo for sharing. Damn, sorry for the braddahs and their trucks! High Mauna-Island snow driving is much different by comparison, albeit some great times for us Islanders who reside on the only two islands which have snow in the State of Hawaii.
Stay safe and no sked em, go get em🤙
Thanks again for what you do!
That crew has a heck of a story to tell now and a new list of tools needed to be prepared for high country snow and trail driving
... some off road convoy education might be in order as well...teaching moment anyone?!
Good job boys... it's really cool that you guys help/volunteer.
Well, that's crazy and sucks balls!! ;-) 4WD doesn't help with braking people. Nicely done. Imagine this stuff happening on an interstate where you multiply the vehicle count by 10 or even 100. The weather is turning wicked as I write this in Minnesota.
Note to self ... keep distance while off-road
Took me 5 hours of self recovery in snow. I even popped a bead while I was spinning the front end around 180 degrees with my snatch blocks. My FJ was 1/3 of the door height deep in snow on 35s. I should've followed my gut feeling when I seen all the 4x4s parked at the trail head and seen nothing but snow mobile tracks.
Snow wheeling... blah.
That tundra should maybe stay on the island instead of the snow lol
Lol🤙
He probably was having a lot of fun and thinking back to how he might have been missing the Island sand or snow! Luckily, we live in Hawaii, where only two islands in the state can trucks be seen enjoying 4X4 driving in snow-capped Mauna and 4X4 driving in the warm sands and building snowman's at the beaches🤙
give the guy in the 5th vehicle a cupi doll.
While I agree in general with some of the comments about people driving too fast, it appears here that it was mostly the terrain and road conditions in this case.
While I agree that driving in snow and such can be fun, I have gotten in trouble all by my lonesome in the flatlands of Kansas! Although I have never had any trouble on the highways no matter how slick or heavy the snow was, get off on the graveled rounds and sooner or later I would find a drift I couldn't bust through or a ditch that was buried under the snow!
Before cell phones, l got plenty of exercise walking for help!
when you end up on the downhill section of a trail and it's got hidden ice underneath, usually it's too late to tell and you just have to ride it out like these folks did.
@@Colorado4x4RescueandRecovery you do not,follow bumper to bumper,down any,,hill,. obvoiusly these guys are not 4x4 drivers..just country yahoo,s..no fkn idea..maybe you should have a mandatory 4x4 school,for these guys..how to drive,operate a 4x4..mud,or good a/t tires,10 psi,500 metres between vehicles, SO YOU CAN SEE WHAT THE GUY IN FRONT IS DOING. 2 way radio,bottom of hill,''clear,next''..dopes..
What happened to the 6 feet apart , bunch of Toyota"s testing air bag recall .
Following too closely. On uphill and downhill sections spacing out and waiting for the other vehicle to clear the section first is best.
Are you guys EMR certified? Just a wonderin that’s all...
Чем больше джип, тем дальше бежать за трактором..
Who’s the bradas from Hawaii? I stay Colorado to maybe can meet up hit some trails
Gown men playing with complex 'tinker toys' and having a ball doing it. Not minimizing the importance of the job but the whole scene is unique to a flatlander accustomed to only Interstate collision stupidity.
Dang I hear u guys airing down the tires.
airing down tires makes all the difference in snow wheeling
How in the hell?
Part 1
Как они умудрились это сделать ? Где полный привод ?
Лед будет доставать тебя каждый раз
That sucks, that’s why I refuse to go snow wheeling.
snow wheeling is some of the most fun!
snow is o.k.,with the right gear,tire pressure,decent tires,chains,low speed,these guys had non.
This a toyota convention!
The same people who drive 70 in the snow on the interstate,gee wonder what happened?
Add-while in the backseat of the car in front of them.
Going a bit too fast, eh?
don't think any speed played into this, just a hidden ice chute under the snow that caught people off guard.
@@Colorado4x4RescueandRecovery yep, that would do it, too.....lol....
What’s really going on?.......... Geez Toyota guys
#Toyota's bullying Dodge
Thank you for proving that Tacoma’s suck!
No, the idiot drivers sucked.
It figures they are all Toyotas! Must be the beta club!😂🤣🤭
