Not a pretty sight. If that was my sled I would have it out immediately, no matter what it takes.

Isn't there a regulation (Environment possibly) that states how long you have to get a submerged vehicle out of the water?

3 Wheeler’s float.  True story 

Can confirm.  Although a tendency to “turn turtle” prevails.

An operator drowned in the Madoc area a few years ago when they tried to 'ford' a creek & their ATV turtled.

Better get out there then - it could be yours!

Should have chased them down and taught them a lesson or two.

I don't think this applies to inland waters!

That is quite the pic! LOL!

 

Was you able to twist the sled enough to get it out on an angle?

 

 

I take it that _ that was a ghost rider down the hill?

 

 

Well, I guess the top pic doesn't look like a hill...

???

you come down short steep hill with a 90 degree at bottom.

Had to put strap on one tree and pull {6 of us] while 2 guys lift up the front 2 feet off ground to get out

p.s. the sled was brand new

I hope all of you learned to carry a saw.

You are so right!  I learned my lesson years ago. 

I have cut open many tight trails with blow downs and cut routes to jump around washouts via ponds and lakes. 

This season for the first time I found my ski trapped below frozen earth/sod and no possible way out because my ski slid forward and dropped into a crack in the ground.  The ski could not backup or go forward while also being below the frozen root reinforced dirt.  It was wedged solid in 3 directions and falling deeper into the open crack was not a way out.  This was a 5 foot deep crack cased by water erosion prior to the winter.

My 14" folding saw was just long enough to cut the ground away so that the sled could be lifted to free the ski.  Perhaps an axe, but one way or another the frozen ground had to be cut.

I have never been so locked down and even a tow truck could not have removed my sled without destroying it.

I carry a saw and it has saved me many times.
