Chair 17. Chair 17.

Not stuck, he's having vehicle problems, possibly dead battery or his diesel has gelled up and it just died on him.
00:58
I'm going to try to get him to back up a little bit and see if we can get him further off the roadway.
01:02
Break?
01:03
Go ahead.
01:05
He does have a tow coming and it's ski country from Summit, but not sure on the ETA quite yet.

Are you on your way up to Hoosier, to the 7-4?
02:18
David, or just passed Red Hill Forest.
02:25
Yeah, he's slightly on a curve, kind of blind from southbound, so I'd probably need a little help.
02:32
He can't release brakes so he can roll back any further, so he's pretty much stuck.
02:38
And 30-minute ETA for tow.
02:41
Okay, perfect.
02:42
Yeah, it's probably going to be around when I get up there.
