How many Baltimore County workers does it take to dig a Back-Hoe out of the mud?

This is a shot of a county project going on out back of home. An hour later it sank deeper. They brought in another one to help dig it out. As of now, they're still digging!
No excuses!

    That's an excavator, not a back-hoe and it has tracks like a tank, so a 4x4 will not help. Usually, they can dig themselves out using the bucket. But, if he did sink deeper, it's gonna be tough and expensive. A second might work, but we had a situation in a channel job where two semi-type tow trucks had to be called in and rescue it via their winches.


    Peace Out~:D

    Only and idiot would make a comment like that. You have no idea what the job intales and if he was even able to dig facing the other direction. Moving dirt and trenching is the most difficult and of 'any' construction trade.

    This was taken 10 minutes ago. It'll be dark in about 45 minutes. It's in there really deep, but they're getting closer.

    Mind you, that thing was brand new looking when they started this project. Someone has a serious wash job!!!!

    I have been there and done that ron. I would never dig from that side with a stream right behind me. no matter what the job calls for you are asking for trouble.
