Lost And Found FORD! That Was A Close One!

The first job was a small extraction on a Honda Civic that had become trapped in some soft sand at a trailhead parking area.
It took little effort to find them, and little effort to extract the car. Soon they were on their way.
The next day we were called by the sheriff’s dispatch to respond to a 911 call for a pickup truck that was in a precarious spot on Kolob mountain. We didn’t have much to go on.
Dispatch told us that the people were safe, that the vehicle was in trouble, and they were able to give us GPS location. But they did not have any other information such as vehicle descriptions, or the exact predicament the truck was in.
We headed out in the little yellow banana to see what we could see. Upon arriving at the GPS point, and not seeing any sign of a vehicle being recently driven in, we started to fan out and explore every road circling out from the center of the GPS pin.
Finally, after we felt we had exhausted every possibility, we headed out to a point where I knew I could get cell phone reception.
A few miles down the road we came across the vehicle we were looking for, quite by accident, as it was about 5 miles off the GPS coordinates.
When we arrived, we found the truck precariously perched on the edge of the road with two wheels hanging over the bank.
I started calculating the angles, and rigging up so we could pull the truck back onto the road.
Within a few minutes, the truck was back on solid ground.
