Elk hunting and a cougar kill.

[DFS]

That really sucks, hope you get it out of there soon.

It's out and at home. Reports filed insurance contacted. Ball rolling. Guts in knots.

Dam Man! So sorry that happened

Looks like you got sucked into the “Snow Cave” at the base of the pines? I hope you get back on the Trail ASAP.
Did someone pull you out or did you have to dig it out yourself?
Plenty of folks on here would have gladly helped I’m sure.
Let us know how the repair goes.
Glad you weren’t damaged.

Ouch! That's why I take my scout or side by sides hunting...

Ice under 2 inches fresh dry powdery snow. Tap of the brake and the ride began. Steering zero, off the brakes, nothing. 20 mph maybe, and then an abrupt stop against the tree. 3 mile walk until a 2nd ID Vietnam vet gave me a ride to camp to fetch the wife's Expedition. Friends with the tow truck company owner/operator. Out 5 hours later. Drove it home the next day. Wife Son and Parents were with me, all came out unscathed.

Raptor can be fixed, I'm just glad everyone is OK.
The bright side, IMHO is at least you were out Raptoring and not hit by some Fning drunk on the highway.
Glad it's cosmetic and you were able to drive it home.

Truck dropped of at Lithia Ford for the rebuilding. Now the wait begins. "Months" is what I was given for a time frame. Stuck in this till then.

Hopefully it goes well, done sooner than expected and Good as New..

Nows a good time to pick a color and get rid of the primer. Had to beat @smurfslayer to it.

Sorry to see that OP. I had a tree land on mine last year while I was out of town. As was said, truck can be fixed glad everyone is ok.
