slpwlker Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Back many many moons ago when I was a dozer operator. We tried to save it but just couldn get anything going. Driver didn't want me pulling him when it sank. At that stage it was very saveable. then it just kept leaning and all I could do was pull tight and shut the dozer down incase it got drug in also. What a cluster that caused. Had another pic but unknown where it is.

slpwlker Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 That jobsite must have been quick sand!we where pushing muck back into the lake and letting the draglines dig it mixed in with the sand and rock. Had more muck then we could deal with. Hell half the ponds and or lakes had so much in there no but could move. once you started sinking you had to move. had a dozer almost go in. Sitting there talking to another operator and then he moved. 2 mins later the plot he had been sitting on was gone.
