We Made History With This Recovery! (Worlds first)

- When the guys at Cascade Lakes Adventures called to see if I could assist with a snowmobile recovery on the side of the Newberry Volcano, I saw the perfect opportunity to put the new @YankumRopes compound ring technique to use for the first time in history.
I’ve tested this technique at home in the yard, and even went to the Yankum factory to test it in the shop with Alan, but it has never been put to actual use on a recovery. Since this was in a snowmobile only area, I wanted to see if we could do the job purely by hand or with snowmobile assistance, and it worked flawlessly even on the incredibly steep slope. If this hadn’t have worked, we would have had to get permission from the Forest Service to bring the track Jeep in and use the winch to pull it up.
It was a team effort, but the three of us were able to get the sled out with no additional damage, and were able to ride it back to the trucks with no problems.
If you’re looking to rent snowmobiles in the central Oregon area, or pontoon boats and jet skis at the Cultis Lake resort, I highly recommend Cascade Lakes Adventures. They have new and top of the line equipment, and are great to rent from!

That was awesome!! It’s amazing what a couple of snatch blocks and team work can accomplish 👊🏻😎
Need to make a dedicated bridle now out of that winch rope with multiple loops in it, so you can snatch and anchor to a pair of trees and have all that force for 5:1 in one direction!
It worked great ... now you need to try out what CLA has to offer ...
You are right Alan and hey can you tell me if I heard wrong when the guy said that the snowmobile only weighed around 400lbs? Cause if it does then I would hv been way wrong if i was asked that question lol I would think that it weighed alot more than 400lbs🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️😁😁
@@bobbyt2657 CLA?
Welll.... yes and no. Great to see people doing such good work in a truly beautiful setting! Casey ALWAYS enterains and impresses me with his character and his spirit! :) On the other hand very old techniques and tools, adding not much more gear, would have reduced the time and effort of that task enormously. Human powered advantage systems (hoist, technical rope rescue, various names for it) have long existed.I've backed them in and set them up hundreds of times in SAR missions (tool old and worn out these days). Local Mountain SAR teams would instantly recognize the system Casey built, and have pointers to make the job easier and safer. One long line, a couple of RescueCenders (used to be Gibbs, another brand bought them) and setting up the advantage on the road instead ofg the slope would have been fast and buckets less sweat. There are several companies in particular that sell Technical Rope Rescue equipment. I'm not shilling for them, but a internet search will turn them up real quick. Books on the topic too! Not being snarky, admire what you all are doing! Best Wishes and keep it up :)
A former SAR Dude of years passed.....
WOW! To the rider not being injured, the snowmobile still operating and the recovery!!! I lived in Wyoming 40+ years ago and still remember how steep the drop was. Best way to see it is by being on the road looking at the tops of trees that were 50+ feet tall right next to the road. Almost perpendicular! You 3 got your cardio workout on this one! 👍👌👏
That's definitely one way to get that Skidoo out, I've been on snowmobile recoveries and they're always a workout. I'm glad it was Casey doing the recovery because he's always considerate and careful not to damage anything worse than needed. Great job guys!
I hadn't put much thought to it, but you are SO correct. Care and consideration of the customer's equipment and the environment is one of the things that makes Casey shine.
This is a great channel with a variety of different subjects and recoveries. The rigging is very interesting and shows how it can be used to great advantage. Another enjoyable video.
I had no doubt when you showed the new technique that you would find the perfect use for it. Good job.
👍nice use of ropes and explaining everything casey, great recovery!! I think was like a 80/20 pitch in roofer terms lol all I know was it was StEEP......😮 big thanks for the video..... 🌺 ☕🐢
You can also look at the trees for the actual angle.
Awesome recovery you are so right that was the first ever done that way. It took all of you to make that go correctly congratulations to you all
Casey, you have an ingenious mind! And I like how you double check your thought process. Especially given that a false move would have sent any one of you down the side of the mountain. Well done!
Everyday is an adventure with Casey. Looks like a 60 degree slope, and a long way to the bottom!
Finally the super secret recovery gets released!!!! Good job! Made it look easy.
Life's always an adventure.
Great teamwork.
Most people watching this won't understand how difficult this was, Good Job!
Anyone who's been climbing in the mountains knows how much work goes into it. Then add having to get through snow and rescue a fairly heavy machine. They did a very good job.
For some reason, I imagine the Fabrats crew, fabricating a way to mount a small badlands winch with a large battery on a snowmobile that could be anchored to a tree so they wouldn't have to muscle the wrecked one as much. Your rescue looked like a great workout.
They could but it is already available as a Ski Doo dealer mounted accessory. :)
I bought a Warn 1000 Lb. Sno-Winch That Came In It's Own Gear Bag And Straps, Etc. To Carry On My Skidoo Rev 800 For Emergency Needs When Needed !
I Did Add A 50A Anderson Plug Direct To My Skidoo Battery And The Other End To The Sno-Winch Power Cable To Make It Easy To Connect Anytime.
I Also Made A Short Cable With Anderson Plug Like At My Battery With The Alligator Clips on The End Of That Cable To Allow It To Be Used On Any Other Skidoo That Was Stuck With A Battery As Well. Came In Handy More Than A Few Times !
I have to wonder a bit about your statement about being the world's first on that. No doubt trappers and other outdoor enthusiasts, have been doing things like this for a long time. It was a great job you did there, all three of you but think of sailors who have been using rigging for many years. This might be a first for being on video and it was a tough job well and smartly done, I have to give you that. Now you're going to have to get a skidoo and rig it as a wrecker/recovery vehicle. Skidooing is great fun and can be a lot of work too, like when you get stuck in slush on a lake or go over a bank on a mountain. You did a very nice job on that. It was a nice change from your everyday used skills. Thanks for the video, it was a good one.
My legs were cramping and my lungs were on fire....45 degrees!!! and I'm not talking weather...Great job and the light weight stuff saved your BACON!!
Well done Casey!! I was a recovery vehicle operator in the Army for 20 years, and part of the training school for wrecker operators in the Army is pulling a 2 1/2 ton cargo truck out of mud over the wheels with only snatch blocks, a ton or rope, and the guys in the class. Amazing what mechanical advantage can accomplish!! Love your videos!!
it gets even better when you start adding in other easy to make mechanical advantages like flip winches
@@imchris5000 pardon my dumbness but what are flip winches? 🤷♂️🤷♂️😁
@@paulrivers7248 basically a + made of logs with the rope wrapped around. you flip it over to wrap more rope it works based on the principles of levers
@@imchris5000 oh ok thanks
Well done !
WHOA that was way up there and also way down the slope. Awesome planning and execution! Y'all got your cardio in for that day! Casey seeing you come across the top was the best! I had both arms up rooting for you guys!
That snow mobile was WAY down the hill !!! Nice job getting him out. I'll bet they were really happy to see it back on the trail!!
That looked like a perfect scenario for a Lewis Winch powered by a chainsaw head. 150 feet of 4000 lbs pulling power. With all the winter snow recoveries, I'm surprised you don't already have one. They normally have 150 of steel rope, but I wonder how they would do with a small diameter synthetic rope and used for this or atv/utv recoveries.
I was pondering the same thing. I had a friend use a chain saw winch for a very similar situation here in northwest montana.
Oh that brings back memories of me getting my old Allouette sled stuck in 2 foot deep snow in the back woods of the farm, breaking trail for the cross country ski trials. I would get home soaking wet. It was always a work out. But then I was 40 years younger then.
What an excellent demonstration of what you can do with the "Genius Snatch Block" set up.
being from mid west most of my first 45 years, it makes the last 20 in South Florida a good decision. Thanks for the memories...
Great job on the recovery... FANTASTIC job of documenting all of it. I have a feeling just about as much work went into filming, getting all the different shots, and editing.
Great effort getting the snowmobile up the hill with man power. That slope looks super steep.
Bright & earlier today as I wait for a detail!👏🏼
Good job Casey looked like work glad it worked. God bless you and your family and your friends. Have a wonderful night.
You guys must be in great shape to be able to do such strenuous work at such a high altitude!
Man I love seeing your work and world! Never been to the north west in person YET! I’ve seen it through the cameras of many and I have stalked it all on google satellite view 😅. Thanks for the videos. I have been bing watching for weeks and weeks. I’ve liked 👍 every post and comment on a few. I even watch the ads just to hope they give you a larger cut! Keep it up buddy. We love it!
casey you are my best offroad recovery you are the best
I tuned in from my AZ desert home just to watch you guys flounder around in the snow. The geometry of the recovery was a great bonus.
I love the beauty of the Cascades, especially the snow.
Great Fun recovery Casey! 🤙😎
Good job Casey! That looks like a lot of hard work.
The view from your office is second to none! You worked hard and overcame. Awesome!! But the view,YES!Proof it can be done!!
I was not able to watch this video earlier, just now had time to watch and man that was a really STEEP Mountainside! Good work Casey and Cascade Lakes Adventures! That was a very physically exhausting job! That will make some muscles ache that you did not know you had LOL.. Excellent recovery Casey, thanks for taking us along. 👍💯
Fun day 👍 Great views 👍 Great recovery👍
Geez Almighty👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Talk about almost vertical fly on the wall steepness
Awesome job you guys pulled off
That was a steep recovery! You got quite a workout on that one! First recovery without a winch but the same technic!
Great use of the compound ring technique, glad I watched the compound ring 101 video to know what you were doing!😁
Had similar situation....was introduced to a chainsaw winch....
Cool video
This is when a chainsaw hoist would a great thing to have on hand.
I was thinking the same, some sort of light weight winch at the top
WOW!! THat was pretty darn awesome. That was a steep climb there but great team work.
This is great! Small note, i have pulled bumpers off sleds doing tow outs. If you hook up to the spindles on the sleds near the skis you have a much stronger hook up. The older the sled the more brittle the bumpers become. This is an awesome back country rescue video.
Watching you have to crawl on all 4s to rerig those lines, I can tell how steep that is! Great work and thanks for sharing!
Wow, I learned a lot from that video. Great team work.
One for the record books indeed.
now that's an off road recovery. you really DO know what you're doing Casey.
Mr. C, this is a gr8 video. U R a gr8 teacher too.😊
they definitetly called the right person way to go!!!!!!
Casey I will be honest that recovery looked like a lot of fun. There was hard work involved but hanging out with friends is always a good time.
I don't mind hard work when I can hangout with friends while doing it.
Another great video to watch and enjoy! This one made me glad I'm living on Guam in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, nice and warm. But snow mobiles in the snow looks fun and exciting! Can't wait for the next adventure!
We are cheering over here in Michigan!!
Casey look up Simpson winch in Portland. Its a capstan rope unit that fits in a milk crate. You could pull that snowmobile from as far as your spool of rope reaches. Good work at getting it out with man power though.
That went about as well as it could have for that recovery! The trees growing straight up from the sloped hillside gave a pretty good visual reference for how steep it was. No doubt that was a workout!
Question: on the way out there, you said “ I love my job”.
After crawling up the hill, did you still feel that way?? 😂😂
Yes
@@CaseyLaDelle 👍👍👍👍👍👍
We love your job too.
@@CaseyLaDelle love it! if I got to work in that type of setting, I would too!
Wow! What an amazing and interesting recovery Casey! I'm glad that sled ran and was able to be driven out. That was a lot of work and would have been a lot more difficult if the sled didn't run.
I've done enough of this that I take no satisfaction in watching someone else have the do it. I'm happy the sled was able to assist and you weren't doing it in bad weather.
The only thing I can say is. Single cylinder, 2 stroke and LIGHT are perfect for everything but speed and straight climbs. I bet a modern sled could tool around at 20hp no problem. I'd love to see some of the old GI sleds made with modern engineering and materials.
Fantastic! Why didn’t they have machines like that when I was young. They like so much fun to ride.
It looks like your setup to release the snowmobile from the clutches of the tree were successful. The Elbow grease worked today. But I suspect that mechanical power would have been the preferred method of snow mobile tree extraction. I hope you all slept well that night. For this old man I would be out for the count several weeks. 🤣🤣😩😩
I think this was more a how to video showing how to use elbow grease and pulleys rather than using the two snowmobiles sitting up top to get the tree bound snowmobile back up on top.
I'm getting exhausted just watching y'all climbing around on that slope, dang.
That was epic it amazes me how your medical condition doesn’t slow you down your the man Casey!
You three did an awesome job recovering this snowmobile. Now, I have recovered many aircraft in my time in some of the most ridiculous areas. This is an idea for you to invent and patent. A come-along and a 24 volt cordless drill with the small Yankum rope attached to a tree. I have never tried it, but, I'll bet it is buildable. Just an idea. Great job guys.
Awesome footage and work guys 👍👍🇺🇸🗽🇺🇸 Thank you for sharing 👍
The Vermonter
Awesome video , Casey! Well done as always!! I found this extremely useful. On my sled in a small zippered Milwaukee pouch I carry 100’ of 5/32 Dyneema with spliced eye on each end, as well as small soft shackles of same material. Along with that, a 10’ tubular webbing sling and an assortment of petzl climbing pulleys and caribeaners. I love the new synthetic snatch blocks that Alan has developed. Id love to see a smaller version made just for smaller/lighter off road and sleds. Keep it up man!! Cheers from Idaho.
Lived in Alaska for 16 years doing similar stuff, sure makes me miss it
Good morning and hell yeah! Hello Casey!!
Best office view ever!!! Thanks for sharing.
I am SO glad it was not me on that hillside, you would have brought me out on a sled dead, nice jog all.
Excellent work you guys I think I'll call you next year when my elks on the ground,help me pack it out. .yipyip
Old fashioned block and tackle.
Used to use them on the farm for lifting animals when butchering.
Great job!
Very nice.
You look so much younger without your hat on.
Ok I am impressed. That was steep and you had to struggle but you got it.
What a job!!😮😮glad u have such great helpers!!❤❤❤😊
As a Canadian snowmobiler, I would say definitely get a setup that goes to the spindles. Much much stronger. Also, a gas powered portable winch (porta power?) would be amazing here combined with your existing setup
can't wait to see Casey's future heavy-duty snowmobile with a winch. well done guys.
Casey LaDelle your videos are awesome. Always enjoy watching them from CA. If you don't already have a pair you should grab some cheap slap on spikes for your boots. Makes walking on hillside a breeze. Keep the killing it bro ❤
Fun fact: "Cultus" is a word from the Chinook trade jargon, which means "bad" or "worthless". There's a bunch of lakes called "Cultus Lake" in the American Pacific Northwest/Canadian Pacific Southwest. 😸
Great Great video Casey and the rest.....
Casey, look into a small Capstan winch powered by a Honda motor, used them for hunting and pulling game up the hills. You can pull 1000 lbs with them, the limiting distance is the amount of rope you carry with you, and of course the gas to power the saw motor.
That still looked pretty steep. Glad it turned out to be a safe recovery & yall didn't turn into snowballs rolling down the side of a mountain
A true definition of "teamwork makes the dream work" on display here...nicely done gentlemen! I know it wasn't easy but y'all worked your arses off and got it done.
What an exhausting task....
Very well executed.....
Nice going Casey.
That was a "story for the grand kids". So cool you have video evidence! Well done, guys.
Somewhere on YT, there is a video of a bunch of soldiers recovering a Humvee stuck in sand up to the belly pan. 4 snatch blocks at each end and 8 or 10 soldiers made easy work of the stuck vehicle.
Great recovery!! Epic!!
Based on the angle in my screen, I would say you were sitting at 45+ degrees easy... then, once up on the "flat," close to 30-35 degrees.
Awesome teamwork and great communication.
Awesome recovery! Very cool!
I enjoy your positive outlook on these recoveries. Content great as always.
...well, the good news for me, after decades of riding snowmobiles, is that I am clearly too old for this action. Nice Historic Recovery, Casey...
You guys had to be tired after that. Good job and great thinking. Blessings
Now that was one PHYSICAL RECOVERY with the aid of leverage and brain!!! WELL DONE!!!!
Yup another awesome video.
That was amazing and yes, the incline was apparent in the video when you are standing on one foot and on knee! It was beautiful and I'm glad it went so well.
Live to see history happen
Great job. Time to invest in one of those portable battery powered winches before the next remote recovery.
Awesome job guys
Damn you guys got a real workout doing this recovery. A beer and a long nap are in order after this one!!
As someone who is trained in crevasse rescue, it's nice to see someone else use the same principles for other uses.
You get pictures of some of the greatest scenery in the world. The snow mobile rescue was good too. Your 5 way setup is cool too.
