(slipped off a rock and parked it in the million dollar position, so to speak)

While I prefer to use a bottle jack, there was no way it or a winch or tow stap was getting me out of that situation. As suggested, maybe one person needs to carry one for those every now and then situations?
Yeah I do remember that - wasn't that caused by driver error though...
