- So we got a call for an Artic Cat Wildcat stuck in a canyon, east of Mount Carmel junction.
The steering had locked up, and it wouldn't steer.
We called Paul, he is close and knows the area.

Just wanted to give a shoutout to that camera guy... mostly traversing inclines, and rough terrain on foot to get good footage.
He must be part mountain goat. LOL
Sounds like something the camera guy would say 🤔
Wanna loose weight? Work for Matt as a cameraman
I wonder how many Go Pro batteries he carries too lol
Randy has fan club to how cool.
Can't be many companies that would take on such a recovery. You all are impressive!
No other recovery company in the entire state of Utah would be able to do what Matt and his team does. Anyone else would charge more than the vehicle they're recovering is worth.
What does that cost!!!!
From experience it’s pretty tough to find a recovery company that’ll do anything like Matt does. I got stuck memorial weekend above flat ant road in northern Utah and we had to hike 22 miles out and leave my truck for a day after we had helicopters and search and rescue teams looking for us because the wife was freakin out. We called every recovery company we could and after giving gps coordinates they all refused luckily we found one that would winch us out the 2 feet we needed to get off the diffs for 1600 dollars which was a great company and a cool guy but I won’t name them here out of respect for Matt but luckily we have state farm insurance and they have great off-road recovery coverage and we got reimbursed the full amount but it definitely had me regretting going north instead of going south to sand hollow Matt’s area like we were thinking about. Lol it was a good time the wife calls them bad choices I call them good times but I’ll remember to go south so that Matt can pull me out next time.
@@jessicacordova5024 Had no idea off-road recovery coverage was even a thing - I'll have to look into that now!
Ben Johnson lol me neither until I needed it. The recovery company we ended up using had us call our insurance and ask them if they’ll cover it. From what the recovery guy said he said state farm insurance is almost the only insurance that’ll cover it he said geico and progressive will occasionally cover it if it’s nothing too crazy. You do have to have full coverage to get it though and state farm you kinda have to talk them into full coverage if you’re in an older car or truck. They originally said that I can only get liability on my 1990 f250 because it wasn’t worth having full coverage on something that old but I had to tell them I’m not going through them if they won’t give me full coverage. The part of state farm that covered it was just the towing coverage.
Looking back at these older videos makes me appreciate how much everyone has learned and how it has driven so much innovation. Hats off to the MORR team!
Out of all the recoveries I've watched you do, this is the one that actually tired out my foot trying to give the jeep gas from my living room.
I didn't even realize I was doing it too until I read your comment.
🤣😁 agree
My whole leg tenses up.
And leaning to one side for momentum and rocking forward and tightening up!
Great program, what is tour tire pressure if i may ask, we usually do ours 2-3 bar for soft sand
Let's hear it for Randy!! That's some dandy camera work. The Human Drone. I get winded and sore just watching along.
No doubt. I wouldn't have been able to run up that hill
Great Job, as usual, Randy!! Oooo, Ooouch, watch the branches and rock edges when hanging out the window!
Never realized i’d get hooked on off roads recoveries. Learned a lot of valuable info on getting out of some problems. Keep up the good work.
Right never thought I would be entertained by something like this
+1 The most valuable info I've learned is to "make a call"

Shout out to the camera guy on this one. Running that trail to get those shots took commitment.
I'm finding it hard to understand why I find watching a truck moving six inches at a time so darn entertaining!
That 8 mile trip, probably showed about 80 miles on the odometer after all that wheel-spin. Your determination is commendable.
That's a great point: Wonder if Matt checked it???
Amazing the amount of abuse those trucks take. Cherokee is a stock auto transmission, I think.
Can't imagine how much gas he burned up spinning his wheels in 4lo in 1st gear.
Tire companies should give this man free tires for his extreme usage and testing.
I think milestar will sponsor him someday. But their tires are already really cheap compared to other M/T and competitors. 170$ for a 33” tire for my cherokee is pretty good
Cable Nowadays that’s not bad
@B.B. Was about to comment Yellow needs a new set of said rubber
Cable Nowadays man I think he uses Walmart tires on the 🍌
Does he even carry a spare? I haven’t noticed one. Would think sidewall cuts would be pretty common on these rocky trails
**MATT & PAUL, BOTH, ARE AMAZING DRIVERS UNDER THESE CONDITIONS!!!**
I grew up in Hurricane, I’ve been gone for almost ten years. Seeing all the places you are pulling people out of I’ve been to riding dirt bikes. These videos Make me want to move back.
it's packed full of tourists and Californians now
Some of us old timers are still here.
There's people who like a challenging 4x4 experience, and then there's Matt who brings a trailer along XD
I just started a channel where I go into the mountains with trucks and bag on em. I just wanna make some people laugh.
The difference is Matt know what he do
And a Mountain Dew.
scrappyweeman hold my mountain dew 😂
brings a trailer *and* does it in reverse
"you can't make it up that hill"
Matt: "Hold my Mountain Dew"
There is no try....Only Dew.
@@crazyaz9468
:-)
"Dew or Dew not.
There Is No Try."
Is MTN Dew Matt's sponsor? :-)
I noticed on one episode that you had to cool your radiator down with a jug of water, you can setup your washer fluid nozzles to spray your radiator so all you have to do is push a button.... By the way I love watching your channel great content
This type of recovery is what separates the just pros from the super pros like Matt and Paul. Truly impressive.
Makes appreciate what our ancestors did crossing and developing this great country.
Bradford, I've thought this same things on many of Matt's adventures.
They did it with mules and carts on wooden wheels, can you imagine?
Chris Horry WHAT? NO JEEPS? OH MAN DUDE THATS UNREAL!
Yeah, I hear you! My ancestors settled a lot of the towns in Southern and Central Utah. The guts and faith they had was amazing!
@@Zerbey with no established roads!
WOW- this was better than most hollywood movies i have watched over the past few years!!!!!
100% ✌
If you go on fab rats you tube channel u can see it from Paul's perspective
Beating Hollywood hasn’t been difficult for years . Lol
Honestly the production quality of Matt’s videos just keeps getting better and better! It becomes glaringly obvious when I watch other RUclips videos.
If someone was crazy enough to get a four-wheeler stuck on Mt. Everest, you guys would be crazy enough to get it. Wow!
Just wanted to give you all a shout out. I received my Matt's Recovery Rope. Couldn't be more happy with the purchase. Thanks!
"Well we made it thru the easy part, then we made it thru the hard part, now all we gotta do is make it thru the rest of it!".....Matt 2020
That’s definitely one of the best quotes to come out this channel
Vehicle maintenance schedule:
1) normal
2) extreme
3) Winder Towing
Nailed it!
So true
The vehicles, drivers, and driving skills all top notch.
@@santeebandit3246 I thought I had extreme skills at four wheeling, until I watched Matt and his vids... Lol
He must have transmissions and transfer cases laying around ready to switch out.
I m glad you got a really great buddy to take to the waaay off beaten path and get a job done together.... great calaberation ...
Paul, not only a good friend, of Matt's off road recovery, but also a great help as well. Awesome job well done.....
Are Matt and Paul related???
Backing down a ravine with a TRAILER?
Skill Level : Ninja
There are first responders then there is Matt and his team, the Only Responders
Lol true when I got stuck the first responders search and rescue, dnr and sherrifs said we’re not damaging our vehicles to get up to where you’re at even though most of em were in side by sides and I was In a 6000 pound truck. No disrespect to first responders they run towards danger as others are running away they’re the ones that need to get the respect especially in these garbage times. lol they just can’t off-road and drive like Matt can.
Yep!
@@jessicacordova5024 -tax payer funded vehicles for them to utilize for any situation.
Better not utilize it and waste tax payer funds.
“The only responders” should be a tshirt.
One of the greatest things about both crews is how much respect and admiration they have for each other. Paul, asking Matt where he wants the machine , then Matt's 'bout there'! Dialed. No ego.
I haven't owned a 4x4 in many years....I hardly ever take my KLR650 off road either........But *IAM HOOKED ON MATT'S VIDEOS* ......It isn't any one thing...It's the total package of the people, the vehicles, and the All American idea of creating your own business and working hard, working smart, and enjoying life.............. When the going gets tough and everyone is hot, sweaty, and fall-down-tired, Matt and his crew just keep on working the problems....What a cool example of what may be possible......Good show for families to watch and discuss with the kids.
People don’t realize the stress your recovery vehicles go through that costs money for maintenance I can appreciate that.
I just about pulled the arm off my chair helping you pull that out of there, I hope you appreciate it!
It was rather intense!
Matt and crew you guys are awesome. I had to turn down the sound @ 19:32 because it was intense . Thanks for the great rescue ya'll are one dedicated group of people and so nice.
I think this is the 3rd time I've watched this. Never get tired of the collabs between Matt and Paul. No matter how hard the work, they seem to have so much fun together.
Matt's future business;
Bright yellow Chinook helicopter.
if it can lift a tank it can lift a rental car or side by side.
Yes the flying banana
Think I'd pay admission to watch someone sling load a Prius....
That recovery would be 5 grand on helicopter fuel alone XD
@@MrAcuta73 Lol
@@ogre350 cant unsee
Companies should be throwing gear at you to test
That’s what I thought that jeep is a little work horse
They need to be Sponsored by Maxxis or Micky Thompson. They Tyres on the Jeep are past there Time
@@glennkiller3195 I thought that about those tyres initially, but they seem to grip well. Maybe Matt relies on more surface area for grip, rather than huge deep lugs for throwing gravel everywhere.
@@glennkiller3195 what kind of tires does he run
@@spookycrane9318 I don't what tires he's running. I've seen the Banana with BFG Mud Terrains. I thought he'd use a Baja Claw. I know Maxxis Trapadors would be too much for Sand.
Now that's what you call teamwork. It's a great thing to see 👀 ,friends helping out friends.
Who said a Jeep can be a friend of Toyota! Awesome rescue!
Thank you for having a clean channel my son can watch and learn from.
Not bad. That Wildcat got nearly as far off road as the Prius did.
Haha, you’re not wrong😂
That saying something about 1 of those manufacturers
You can go as far as you want in any kind of toyota, not so sure about the getting back part

new to the channel so binge watching a lot of the videos, it's amazing to see how far all the recovery vehicles have come.
Matt: I sure hope you let Randy and All of your camera persons know how much we appreciate them! Awesome video. Paul and your team truly work well together.
My xj over heated from me watching this video
Bro. Mine too. 🤣🤣🤣
Watch blowing O rings when crouching
Mine is sitting on a lift with the diffs torn apart, and still overheated from me watching this.
Here, even downhill I would have problems with overheating. 😅
I don't even own an xj and mine overheated while watching this
The ball hitch continues to amaze me. I thought for sure angles like that would completely disconnect it. 7:30
I was thinking a pintle hitch might be better for articulating
@@kennethstaublejr9324 It definitely would, but he clearly doesn't need 1.
Until it wears out, or breaks unnoticed, then comes off going down the highway. Just a thought.
Same thought here Colton!
Amazing what you can put those vehicles through. I have to tear myself away from watching these or I'll waste my whole day. The country is beautiful too.your camera crew is great.
Hey guys! I enjoy watching your videos! I am a Cuban guy living in Canda. Whether here doesn’t allow us to the same you do, but I love off road! Thanks for sharing us your videos!
Matt says, "We're running a little ahead of schedule." ******** You should rename your company "Unicorn Towing." I have never seen a tow company that runs ahead of schedule. You rock!
Under promise and over deliver. Never any complaints then 💪
(Just kidding... there’s always someone who will complain about something)
I find myself lunging forward rocking back in my recliner trying to give them by-location push , To give them that added inertia to get them up that hill.
Same here.
Couldn't they of just pulled that thing that's on the trailer up by it's self? then put it back on when they got to the top?
@@kdubssolo9111 it doesn't have steering, a rock or loose dirt can cause it to turn and now you have a vehicle stuck on a hill that can't be loaded in a trailer.
Me too! Ha!
Retroactively since they film a week before.
WOW - How did I miss this one (This gave me an ulcer) I knew Matt would flip the trailer for sure on that first turn, and the rest was a real nail-biter. Go Paul... someone deserves a few gallons of cool Mountain Dew!
For anyone that can back down a trailer in a freaking canyon with rocks on both sides. I totally give them 100% respect. That's just insane and pulling a trailer with a razor on it and going up hill.. Awesome driving guys! I was actually more concerned on the gas that the banana had left.. lol
I hope my leaning and twisting helped. I'm exhausted
Hope you were buckled in for the ride
@@billfielder3646 I need to.
Lmao glad I wasnt the only one
I was rocking back and forth trying to add momentum lol and I had my foot pressed hard to the foot rest.
@@scottgm321 See, someone gets it .
Easily one of my new favorite channels! Great personalties, solid rigs, and amazing recoveries!
Incredible! Been watching ur channel for about 2 weeks now and I never knew there were badass people like you guys extracting vehicles from such wild and unimaginable places!
I'm in awe of what u guys pull off time and time again.
Ur great attitude with all these people is so awesome as well.
Congrats!
That was a hell of a recovery. Perseverance payed off.
Problem solving with Matt and Paul in the most rugged and beautiful landscape imaginable. An incredible adventure that I keep coming back to watch again and again. The cinematography is sensational. This adventure should get an Oscar. Bravo!!!
“Can you tell us where it is?”
“Oh 8 miles”

@@fistcover3831 Give this man an app. He's better than gps.
Ole man probably knows those trails by the back of his hand, I’m sure he has a story about “back in my day we would run up and down these trails” 😂
😂😂😂☠
I was going to say the exact same thing.... I was thinking: Well, this guy is no help.
I love how simple Matt's rig is for an off road recovery vehicle, nothing super expensive or crazy just a proper 4x4 and good tires
Probably much cheaper than a side by side
Erm... Have yall ever priced out solid dynas? Not cheap per se
@@FreeTimeFeats if you can snag the axles off a military vehicle is the cheapest option but ya your right lol
Very big tires helps yep
And LP6s...
Just starting to fall in love with your Jeep. Just an old car with the basics in it that you need. A powerful v8, big tires, special suspension, some other mods, a winch, some ropes and good offroad knowledge. So cool!!
The Banana is a six cylinder.
Matt is the type of guy you would willingly watch two skippable ads in a row just to help him succeed. Great channel, been watching for quite some time now and a Utahn as well!
You have got to be kidding me! I was actually getting nervous that NO ONE was gonna make it out. WHEW!! I am continually amazed at the situations you and crew get into and make it happen. Amazing!! 👏👏👏👏
Anyone that thinks they are great at backing up a trailer will quickly be humbled watching this video!! You have a lot of talent Matt!!
I was thinking the same thing. Especially backing up at the same time as shifting elevations on ridges of sandstone.
By far their best! All skills in the tool box on display!!
Great respect for a friend that is! You guys and gal are what America is known for! Awesome !
7:25 I can't even back up my RV in a straight line in a paved campground.
Haha, not used to finding them things with both front tires still on..
Again a great recovery. I was on the edge of my seat and the dust blew into my living room 🙂 Thanks Matt and your team for sharing this!
I just found this show with awesome stories except it actually real. I was scared to death for you guys. You made it look so easy.. I took me 3mos to learn to back up my 16ft trailer I went back and knew i could do it after watching this. Thanks for the confidence you gave me just watching
If anyone deserves an ice cold Mtn Dew it's the camera guy. Dude knows how to hustle.
They chew him out a lot for working supposedly haha
Instead of filming but he’s a hustler I agree
I've watched many of your recovery videos. I have to say: you're definitely the master of off-road recovery. Pulling a trailer into that area and then backing up in that wash...😀👍 You definitely earn your money.
DITO & thumbs up
This makes me want to build an off rd vehicle like Matt's jeep, which is super badass when it comes to off rd, many a big diesel with RV got pulled out!! Would never think it could do that!! This was an awesome video with some amazing climbs with trailer. Matt's recovery is amazing!
Awesome job yourself and Paul are a great team 👍🇮🇪
This is by far the craziest trailer reverse I've ever seen.
I don’t know how I will ever sleep now that I’ve discovered these videos.
I love the help you get from Paul. He really knows what hes doing. Great work on the job and on youtube Matt!
You guys are awesome. I am in Connecticut and I am unaware of any legal trails here to take my Jeep. So I just love watching your recoveries, and try to learn.
Anyone that lives around me that wants to four-wheel needs to drive over an hour to a 4X4 park that you have to pay to get in.
That Toyota's winch is insane, must have had at least 8 ton on the end of that line, pulling 2 trucks, the cat and the trailer up a what must be at least a 30-45 degree incline.
is that a tacoma?

Hats off to Randy. Boston Marathon would be easy after desert mountain running with a camera focused on the action.
You and Paul make a good team I hope he will be part of more recoveries with you two working together there isn't anything that you two can't figure out and have the horse power to recover anything
The side by side was like the cheap remote control cars you get for ten bucks. Straight forwards. Back up and turns to the left!
I hated those as a kid. Never understood why it wasn't built to turn both ways. Some engineers sick joke to torment poor kids as myself
I know exactly what you mean! Great description.. those R/C cars sucked.. even worse were the ones with cable remote:-/
I remember them they were pretty crappy, Ah,the good old days.
😂😂😂 I was there
Hahahaha! Yep! Those RCs were the worst! Corded even!
You designed the trailer to do exactly what you did today. And it did it very well.
Shoutout to the guy running the GoPro. He's either fearless or has a deathwish.
The abuse that both you and Paul subjected your rigs to during this recovery were incredible. It's a tribute to the fabrication expertise that both of them held together as well as they did. Who knew that the combined weight of both the trailer and it's load the razor "Wildcat" would cause so much resistance. However, it's jobs like this were experience really come into play.
backing a trailer is very difficult for most people then matts over here backing a trailet without being able to see it and being completely crossed up. absolutly insane
He's got cat whiskers
Years ago I had a lifted Toyota and got repeatedly crossed up trying to back a jet ski down a long narrow trail we were using as a boat ramp. I couldn't see the jet ski until it came into view of my side mirrors and literally felt like I was chasing my tail. After that trip I went to a local Home Depot parking lot a few times after they closed and practiced backing up...
@Ron T Try backing anything into anything in a small city in Europe...
@Ron T jesus 😂
@@justinm.791 a trick that helps in some situations with Van's and SUVs is open the hatch/ tail gate, and you have clear line of sight in most cases.
MATT, HELLO all I can say is WOW what a WITCH of a grade, I was worried you might overheat, Or break something, but even with your extra power tow, it was TOUGH, , I hope your customer could appreciate just how. Bad this was, God Bless, and stay well, out there Cheers 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I think its diesel time for the Banana!
You Guys are a source of inspiration: hard work, never give up, good spirits, excellent team work! God Bless!
Excellent, exciting rescue. You’re a true professional Matt.

I sometimes watch these videos and think "Yeah this looks like fun, I could do that".... then you post something like this and I think "Nope, I'll leave this to the pros".
love watching Matt and Paul work together. It like they don' t even need to talk, they both just know what needs to be done.
Matt and the gang are a different breed of people. Great work.
Hey Matt, love the channel. I watch your videos so early I never ever see the comments. I word of advice, don’t read the comments. You’ve got a formula and it’s working great. Comments sections are the worst of the worst places to be. Keep up the great work man!
Don't read your comment, got it :D
Comments are the best part

0xsergy that means you read my comment. You’ve already failed! Lol.
@@FiveOnFridays psh you can't prove that.
I’m surprised neither the Toyota or the Jeep overheated going up that hill! A job well done
Matt did say he had his heater on, which tells me he doesn't have an electric fan set to run on an auxiliary switch. I bet they were getting pretty hot.
Well, those are two of the best trucks ever made, so they started with an advantage.
WOW how far have MORR and Fab Rats come. It was fun going back and watching. I did miss the modern day bantering Matt and Paul get into on screen now days.
You guys are amazing! I just can't believe the places you put that Jeep to recover people! Keep up the good work!!
These boys are rough on their equipment, but I like their confidence and determination.
Have done this before. To avoid beating up the vehicles, unhitch the trailer, move the vehicles up the hill, put your winch in the rear receiver and winch the trailer up. Block the trailer, move the vehicles up, rinse/repeat. No strain on the truck drive train. Works like a charm.
B/w doing that & utilizing some snatch blocks/pullies....using some LEVERAGE to help ease the hard work!
@@nermalsturf but requires twice the cable length disadvantage, they were allready at max length.
These guys need a dirt bike to reconnoiter the situation before they commit to hauling a trailer into that terrain.
- While watching this, all I could think was, why do they have the Wildcat ON the trailer.
The Wildcat was running, it could've been rolling on its own wheels.
Just have the Wildcat hooked up to the Toyota and drive it out under its own power.
The Jeep brought the trailer in, it can haul it out.
-
Even if the Wildcat wasn't running, they could just hook the 3 vehicles together, and maybe even have the trailer tied onto the back of the Wildcat.
That would've been so much easier and no wear & tear on the vehicles.
Ah the SnowRunner Approach, works every time.
tsrjs I said the same thing.
You guys should get a set of max tracks. They work GREAT in snow and sand and would help immensely on climbs like the one you guys dealt with.
Sometimes I think, "Matt has the BEST job ever!" and then sometimes I think, "those poor bastards!" but it's just occurred to me that you guys must have some strict maintenance routines for your trucks. Keep getting 'em out!
Not an easy recovery. Good job fellas. I love watching people that actually know how to drive offroad
Is an art.
Jeep deserves a beer after that.
I was thinking that must be a Utah thing. I dont think its in their culture. I would surely want a beer or 5.
That was a tough climb, and the area you were in was beautiful. Some really brilliant camera work.
The way Matt holds his Drew shows the respect that the MtnDew deserves!
