Offroad recovery resources in Nevada

775 Offroad and Recovery is a non-profit group which gets people unstuck offroad, including on the playa.

They are (775) 238-3793

"775 OFFROAD & RECOVERY is a 501(c)(3) non-profit volunteer organization that has chosen to undertake the role of community organization, community outreach, providing training and workshops to the community, removing and recovery of stuck, stranded, abandoned or damaged vehicles from BLM land, USFS Land, Forest Service Roads and other offroad destinations while working with state and federal agencies that oversee those same roads. We work and are designed to respond quickly to threats to health, welfare and safety. 775 OFFROAD & RECOVERY will deploy qualified volunteers with a dedication to public service and the offroad community."

They have classes in off road recovery. I'm a big fan of sand plates, shovels, and jacks, but too few carry them.

Adventure, have fun, stay alive!

a great group. There are similar all over the west (I'd imagine east of the Rockies, too?).
They often monitor Ham, Short wave, C.B. and internet (such as facebook) for posts from standed travelers.
