I started the day by bring out the mini excavator. I dug out both sides and behind the loader. After that I dug out a ramp. At this point we realized that the path was over 160 feet in and very windy. We called in a wrecking crew. They came out with a massive truck. It could pull up to 20 tons with its wiring. They used a bunch of snatch boxes and were able to get it out. It took them over 2 hours to get it out of the woods and into open field. It sure looks like it might be totalled. Now it is dealing with my insurance and the homeowners insurance.

That’s a hard lesson to learn to not borrow again. Wish you luck to get the money for a replacement.
I’m sorry you went through this. And now this moron has ruined it for everyone.
I was thinking about this while I was eating lunch today.
Sucks man. Hope everything goes as smooth as it can.
Holy shit! It’s gonna take a solid day maybe even two to get all that mud out!
Not to mention checking all the fluids & wiring. Damn OP, I hope insurance pulls through.
The insurance company doesn’t want me to clean it. They want it hauled to a dealer to access the damage.
Whoever said go ahead a bury it may have had the right idea. Glad nobody got hurt.
Does he still work for you ?
The loader becomes the loaded.
Nice . Now that you have gotten it out, is it ok if I borrow it next weekend?😂
