N136UP (cn 819) I'm still a little confused as to exactly the spot he was at, but this view gives you a better idea of just how deeply the main gear bogies were sunk into the mud. I don't know how, but the nose gear didn't seem to be involved in this excursion.

When the pilot realized they were in the grass he tried to power out, almost a success.
