They where so lucky that Casey found them. People just don’t realize how fast the weather and temperatures can change on them. Another great job accomplished by Casey .
Casey- way to be a class act, great and critical advice up front, the help they needed and you respected your customer with no obvious judgement (we all judge, usually best with our quiet voice). Love you repping PLS, I worked the last China Hat and because of this video I’ll post an additional donation. Challenge to the peanut gallery- give what you can, even $10 makes a difference! This crew does it right.
My first thought was "they drove an Alfa Romeo up THAT road!?!?" I swear, if I were still working instead of being retired and came across a vehicle like that driving on those roads off of FSR 22, I would have flagged it down so I could take a picture for the folks back in the office. Nice save, extreme luck for them that you found them, and a good deed sending them to PLS Bend to donate (since they really seemed to want to pay you and you never charge for these rescues). I hope I never need your services, but I'm glad that you are here for folks in Central and Eastern Oregon...
And you are one of the many that help pay to make it free for many. Other than the part about leaving the vehicle, no matter how bad they screwed themselves up Casey does not berate those he rescues. There are the times that Casey is in the 'too bad, so sad - I'm not rescuing you' mood { and we concur }
Every one of Casey's "Jobs" is an adventure ... oft time taking him to where he has nol reception, it goes from rescuing to hoping he gets out too. Then there are the times that he finds nice places to go camping { when he has tim }
Thanks for reinforcing the message about staying with your vehicle when you're lost. As I'm sure you remember, in November 2006 a family took a wrong turn while traveling through the coast range of Oregon. After stopping in snow and waiting for seven days, the husband started walking to find help. The wife and her two young daughters were found and rescued, but the man was discovered dead a short time later. You cannot survive without shelter in the forest, and often your car is the best you have.
So glad you came across these guys, they are super lucky you happened to take the right route to find them. Great video and great job educating them! Forest service should have you do a PSA aired on TV to educate people on NOT leaving their vehicle when stuck like this.
From reading tracks, to solid safety advice, to an Alfa Romeo (which is a fancy $ and € car anywhere) in the Cascades, to PLS Bend which keeps the forests clean - another amazing trip through the woods!
I was waiting for Casey to kneel down and pick up some dirt from the tread tracks, licking/sniffing it like vintage Chuck Norris… and immediately knowing where to go from there
Fun facts about the Alfa Romeo Stelvio: 1: It has a carbon fibre driveshaft. 2: It's based on the same Giorgio platform as the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Maserati Grecale and Alfa Romeo Giulia.
@@zocca0134 ohh ?? If you look at the back end of the car in the vid... it clearly says V10.. maybe im tripping. I will watch it again and get the time stamp. thanks for pointing that out!!
Casey, hats off to you for the work you do to rescue people and not charge them. This behavior is unique. Also volunteering your family time to clean up the woods with other awesome people. Some disgusting humans have no qualms about defacing the beautiful wooded camping areas that decent folk want to use. You are one in a billion and hopefully we can learn something special from you. Thanks Casey for your videos, be safe and healthy. Best wishes to your friends and families.👍👍🇨🇮🇨🇦🐶❤❤
To Casey it's more of an adventure than a job rescuing people and viewers {subcribers} like us pretty much pays for the offroad rescues that he does. I went to plsbend.org { the site Casey sent him to} and ended up going to discovernw.org to donate. Option one ... join one of the clean up's (a nice list of supplies you need to have {for yourself} and whatever else you might want to bring. Option two ... donate. As for the ... we are all human, some end up there because life has thrown them a loop. Others ... the sick side of human nature. Casey wears 5 hats ... Tow vehicle driver{he only has two three trucks - the others are modified jeeps}, Tour guide, Bend Oregon clean up volenteer, Rileys dad, Product reviewer{ if it doesn't die from his overtesting ,, he gives it the thumbs up} .. and all around nice guy. Look through his videos ... he is a funny guy !!!
You saved their lives Casey, they were very lucky this time, I hope they did take your advice never ever to leave the vehicle again. Thank you for your videos man, its like therapy for us to watch you and your gang.
I take my 6mt Chevrolet Cruze on PA forest roads in the summer and fall. its narrow enough that I can drive the hump and the shoulder without getting off the track. But like the driver of the AR, I have no difficulty driving backwards a few miles if I passed the closest pass point. It is all down to how comfortable you are with the capabilities of your particular vehicle and remembering to turn off traction control.
The crazy thing is I just heard the story of James Kim and his family that took a wrong turn and ended up spending 9 days out in the woods. Staying with your vehicle is good advice.
I love the dad to son talk about never leaving your vehicle. It amazes me how some adults lack the ability to think about themselves and the people around them. I can see where it comes from having grown up in the city. I'm glad I spent enough time outside and working with my hands to be able to think critically about survival.
The videos are awesome. The best part is the disbelief encountered when you tell the customer, "No Charge." I even watched your advertisement video. Thank you, Casey.
I think he was about to tear up he couldn't believe someone would recover him from far into the forest. No matter how many times Casey tried to tell him he couldn't compute. Hats off to you Casey.
@@cigarsgunsanddiesel8032 I blame the auto makes and their commercials , making it look like they can go anywhere with these cars even the put "Professional Driver" are doing this
To get helped out of a situation like that and you don’t charge them except what they want to donate to your group is just so amazing and wonderful.🕊🙏🏼🕊
Part of the biggest danger of leaving a vehicle especially in the PNW is that its the only dry shelter. People forget you can get hypothermia in 40,50, even 60 degree weather.
Actually you can become hypothermic in 80 degree weather if it's wet and windy. It's all about lowering your normal body temperature of 96.8 enough points.
As Casey said stay with the car. A rule of thumb for folks- if you can’t drive over a 20 ounce water bottle (roughly 8 inches) stay on the pavement especially in the spring/mud/slush season. Even with 4wheel/front wheel drive and decent tires it ain’t a traction issue it’s a clearance issue and once those big flat bottoms sleds lift the tires that’s where you’re staying.
You have got to be kidding. Saying to stay on pavement is so much overreaction. To be clear, for most people they should never try to work around road closures (outside going completely around the storm system).
Casey, you always amaze me how kind you are to the people that you rescue❤ The Stay in your Car advice👍 Thank You for all you do to help others! Stay safe out there and God bless!❤️🙏
Love this old Ford, definitely a case of "they don't make them like they used to". My number one rule is never go off road without a winch even with an ATV. If that winch is a 2 ton cumalong with a chain and tow straps then so be it. It may take awhile and I'll be tired but I won't be stuck and walking. I've never taken my ATV where I couldn't walk from but my truck has been places where nature would of reclaimed it before I was found. I need to stop going alone or at least tell someone where I'm going.
I almost made the same mistake of leaving my car once when I locked myself out. I got about a mile down the road and thought, "What am I doing!? This is how people die and go missing in the mountains. I went right back and broke the window.
12:33 "He probably didn't need me to do that, but it makes me feel like I'm contributing." Okay, you got me with that one - good thing I wasn't drinking my tea at that precise moment. 🤣
A lot of city people don't realize how dangerous it can be to get stranded in the wilderness, miles and miles from anything without any survival equipment, skills, or knowledge.
Good pull of what seemed like a very nice couple of gentlemen. That is a very high priced car to be out on a four wheel path. I don't think most of the owners of those cars normally even drive their cars on dirt roads. Good work Casey.
from US Forest Service: ⚠️❗️While it looks like Deschutes County plans to open Paulina Lake Road up to Newberry Caldera later this week, please know that all recreation areas are still under significant snow. Hot Springs Day Use has been plowed as the only turnaround. Lakes are still partially frozen and inaccessible from Forest Service recreation sites.
Another successful recovery goes into the book of things that have been done ! Although that Alpha Romara was quite a surprise to see in the deep woods. Even though it was a sportier type car. Still kinda didn't belong out there even on a good day in my opinion. Hopefully you tought them a good lesson about not leaving the vehicle no matter what! Thanks Sharing an taking us along for the Adventure as well Sir ! ✌️❤️🙏
Casey I love your videos you always help people and then have them donate to PLS is a great thing in my opinion because that helps keep everything clean. I agree with you they should of stayed with there car. Safety is always important thing
👍Love to see you asking people to pay it forward. That's a good way we can all make the world a little better. If we all pay it forward, it has a cascade effect. Same if we all just try to give a bit more than we take.
Gooooood morning Casey! Well this was a nice surprise to wake up to a rescue from you! The Alpha Romeo definitely is not the type of Vehicle that one would expect to see off roading stuck in the snow. I can understand your point about the bottom of the car possibly having a lot of plastic panels , you get that on top of the snow holding the car up when the wheels sink into the snow and it would be like a Turtle stuck on its belly in some ruts. The cars owner did seem like a very capable driver. Thanks for taking us along Casey and for your never ending support of PLS Bend! 👍💯
Glad you explained the valuable lesson of staying with the vehicle. It's one thing to do it if the weather isn't freezing or there is no phone signal to communicate, but imo, it's best to have a small kit in the vehicle and always make sure someone knows where you're going and when you plan on returning, stay with the vehicle and let the S&R come to you. Every search and rescue personnel will tell you exactly what Casey said to these guys.
So right about equipping your vehicle. My mom (not my dad) would always have blankets, water, food and extra clothing in the car whenever we would be heading out for the driver to visit either set of grandparents (1 hour drive to her parents, 5 hour drive to daddy's parents). And, we were not going to established, built up, paved roads/major highways. You never know what can happen and how long your gonna have to sit before there is any help. Heck even for around town, wintertime comes along, I make sure I have a blanket or two, a shovel, a jug of ice meal, a jug of sand, water and snacks, and a small duffel with extra dry clothes (sweater, cotton shirts and pants, socks, a pair of boots if I am driving wearing shoes. You never know what might happen and where.
Was just asking myself about the 360 camera stick and wham you talk about it, so cool. Every now and then you can see the shadow of the stick and yet no stick. Nice little videos lately, keeps the squirrel temptation at ease! 🐿️🐿️
Nice video!! Alpha Romeo in the woods??!! Not what I'd expect to find! LOL!! Great advice to stay with your vehicle!! I'm glad you told them because it was obvious they did not have a clue about survival skills. Now they know. I hope this will be an inspiration for them to learn the basics. Great job Casey!!
Being from Switzerland Alfa Romeos are a lot more common than we see them here. My Dad used t have a Spyder (sportscar, 2 seater) and my electric Bass case barely fit right-side up in front of me in the passenger seat. What a great recovery Casey. Great lesson for them to learn and reminder for all to never leave the car.
Hey Casey!!! That WAS a "fun" rescue!!! (though the gents didn't realize the grave danger they put themselves in by leaving their vehicle!!!) Your explanation was SPOT ON, and I'm sure once they stopped to think about what you said, the reality hit home they really COULD have been LOST in the forest in inclement conditions 😵💫 YIKES! It NEVER gets old seeing the absolute STUNNED LOOK when you tell a driver, "NO CHARGE." ... Your staunch support of PLS BEND is admirable!!!! Safe travels, friend❤️❤️ Stay FROSTY... Keep your powder dry and your head on a swivel... 🇺🇸🇺🇸WWG1WGA🇺🇸🇺🇸NCSWIC🇺🇸🇺🇸
Happens here in Australia as well, usually city folk or European/Asian tourists. Get stuck way outback and start to walk in 40-degree heat. Sadly they rarely get far.
@@marvindebot3264 just saw a story some non-drinking lady survived in her car by hydrating off of a bottle of wine she'd planned to gift out your way. Classic
Finally a place I have been. There was a nice little cafe/restaurant at one of those lakes. My wife and I had a great day driving out there and checking out the lakes. Thanks for sharing.
Casey, seeing some of the places your go for recovery, have you thought about getting your ham radio license? Just in case you get hung up in a place without cell coverage? Shortwave or HF radio would allow contact almost world wide from any of your trucks.
@@CaseyLaDelle - I can speak to the value of that license and the ease of getting it now that Morse Code is deader' than road kill. Used VHF/UHF Amateur radio in hundreds of volunteer SAR missions. More especially were situations where I was able to help others while I was simply out on my own in wilderness. Perhaps the most "spectacular" was a pair of gents who were flying ultralight aircraft over wilderness mountains. One crashed. The other made a rough landing to check on the first, and both were trapped. I happen to be on a mountain many miles away and heard their SOS when no one else could. Spent hours guiding SAR personnel to the remote canyon they were in. I could do that, in my case, because like you I knew the back roads, had explored the areas where few people went. Not just me either, I've witnessed that ability to communicate ease a lot of people's suffering and save lives many times, by many a good Samaritan.
Just subscribed , Your correct Stay with your vehicle. I lived in Yamhill County over 20 years , you have to be very careful in the woods with the snow. The coast range get's snow also. Also stationed on the USS Rogers in Portland 4yrs. and stayed in Oregon.
Another great rescue. To me it's still so puzziing that people will still keep driving into sketchy/iffy situations and over estimating what their vehicle can/can't do.
Wow, an Alfa Romeo, Italian sports car manufacturer. I did not realize they even made a crossover, first time I have ever seen one. Definitely not something you see every day!! Thanks for another great video!!
These days it is hard to find a sports car manufacturer that doesn't make some kind of SUV, soft-roader, Chelsea Tractor. Even Lotus are launching one. Colin Chapman would be spinning in his grave as he was an absolute weight weenie. His famous saying was to add lightness...
Casey, I have a 1.5 litter Ford Kuga (Escape) AWD. People have been amazed at some of the places I have taken it off road. Is it built for it? No. Is it safe? With the right group of people. Is it fun? Hell YES.
I just saw u posted on a Facebook page about getting a ticket in California but being able to continue on. I love your page and am a professional driver. Keep on making these great and informative videos!!
I just wanted to say, I have been watching for awhile, and after I saw you eat your sub sand witch with chips, you are now my all favorite tuber , thanks for showing that I’m not the other crazy one that dose that😅😅
Good job Casey! They had no business with that car in snow on a dirt or gravel road. In snow you most of the time need 4x4 vehicle to stay out of trouble. Too many people make mistakes like this and thank goodness for Casey and his generosity!
They where so lucky that Casey found them. People just don’t realize how fast the weather and temperatures can change on them. Another great job accomplished by Casey .
they walked a long way, your advice was spot on to survive.
Casey- way to be a class act, great and critical advice up front, the help they needed and you respected your customer with no obvious judgement (we all judge, usually best with our quiet voice).

Nice to see an old IDI still working. I still drive mine all the time.
Alfa Romeo city day car lost in the woods. Follow the oil trail and all the bits falling off. Well done Casey, your patience is admirable.
Casey, you not only save people's towing butts but you also educate them regarding safeguards during trips into the wilderness.

Good safety teaching. "Stay with your vehicle."
People in Oregon are lucky to have you. Free off-road search and recovery is highly underrated.
And you are one of the many that help pay to make it free for many. Other than the part about leaving the vehicle, no matter how bad they screwed themselves up Casey does not berate those he rescues.
There are the times that Casey is in the 'too bad, so sad - I'm not rescuing you' mood { and we concur }

Fun facts about the Alfa Romeo Stelvio:
1: It has a carbon fibre driveshaft.

You are amazing. I love watching your wisdom and cleverness!
simply the best - you are doing so much good, in so many ways!
Hey Casey!!!
That WAS a "fun" rescue!!!
(though the gents didn't realize the grave danger they put themselves in by leaving their vehicle!!!)
Your explanation was SPOT ON, and I'm sure once they stopped to think about what you said, the reality hit home they really COULD have been LOST in the forest in inclement conditions 😵💫 YIKES!
It NEVER gets old seeing the absolute STUNNED LOOK when you tell a driver, "NO CHARGE."
... Your staunch support of PLS BEND is admirable!!!!
Safe travels, friend❤️❤️
Stay FROSTY...
Keep your powder dry and your head on a swivel...

Happens here in Australia as well, usually city folk or European/Asian tourists. Get stuck way outback and start to walk in 40-degree heat. Sadly they rarely get far.
@@marvindebot3264 just saw a story some non-drinking lady survived in her car by hydrating off of a bottle of wine she'd planned to gift out your way. Classic
Another job well done even though you never said you were good at this.
Good recovery job Casey
Finally a place I have been. There was a nice little cafe/restaurant at one of those lakes. My wife and I had a great day driving out there and checking out the lakes.
Thanks for sharing.
Casey, seeing some of the places your go for recovery, have you thought about getting your ham radio license? Just in case you get hung up in a place without cell coverage? Shortwave or HF radio would allow contact almost world wide from any of your trucks.
Zero interest in it
@@CaseyLaDelle - I can speak to the value of that license and the ease of getting it now that Morse Code is deader' than road kill. Used VHF/UHF Amateur radio in hundreds of volunteer SAR missions. More especially were situations where I was able to help others while I was simply out on my own in wilderness. Perhaps the most "spectacular" was a pair of gents who were flying ultralight aircraft over wilderness mountains. One crashed. The other made a rough landing to check on the first, and both were trapped. I happen to be on a mountain many miles away and heard their SOS when no one else could. Spent hours guiding SAR personnel to the remote canyon they were in. I could do that, in my case, because like you I knew the back roads, had explored the areas where few people went. Not just me either, I've witnessed that ability to communicate ease a lot of people's suffering and save lives many times, by many a good Samaritan.
@@CaseyLaDelle fair enough. Btw, I enjoy your channel.
I’m glad you found them, that is a high-end car, kind of nuts. The guy did what he did, but we all the crazy stuff.
Love the 4K even without the sun. Very interesting video
Just subscribed , Your correct Stay with your vehicle. I lived in Yamhill County over 20 years , you have to be very careful in the woods with the snow. The coast range get's snow also. Also stationed on the USS Rogers in Portland 4yrs. and stayed in Oregon.
Another great rescue. To me it's still so puzziing that people will still keep driving into sketchy/iffy situations and over estimating what their vehicle can/can't do.
Casey ,you give a whole new meaning to patience 😂
Nice job - thanks for the ride-along!
Wow, an Alfa Romeo, Italian sports car manufacturer. I did not realize they even made a crossover, first time I have ever seen one. Definitely not something you see every day!! Thanks for another great video!!
These days it is hard to find a sports car manufacturer that doesn't make some kind of SUV, soft-roader, Chelsea Tractor.
Even Lotus are launching one. Colin Chapman would be spinning in his grave as he was an absolute weight weenie. His famous saying was to add lightness...
Alfa Romeo is owned by Fiat, the same people who own Chrysler and Jeep. Probably a Jeep all wheel drive transmission underneath.
@@milesbartlett from Wikipedia the Alfa uses the same platform as the 21on Grand Cherokee
Casey, I have a 1.5 litter Ford Kuga (Escape) AWD. People have been amazed at some of the places I have taken it off road. Is it built for it? No. Is it safe? With the right group of people. Is it fun? Hell YES.
Hello from Romania ! I enjoy watching your videos and love your trucks. keep up the good work
I just saw u posted on a Facebook page about getting a ticket in California but being able to continue on. I love your page and am a professional driver. Keep on making these great and informative videos!!
I bet he's wishing he bought a jeep and that's first time for a Alfa great video and great job with the recovery God bless from GA
He kinda did 🙂 The Stelvio is based on the same platform as the 21 on Grand Cherokee.
Make of that what you will about the Jeep 🙂
So Wise , Thank You . Another fine rescue . A fine example of just a little farther . I agree a fine Trophy , and a story to tell
I just wanted to say, I have been watching for awhile, and after I saw you eat your sub sand witch with chips, you are now my all favorite tuber , thanks for showing that I’m not the other crazy one that dose that😅😅
Good job Casey! They had no business with that car in snow on a dirt or gravel road. In snow you most of the time need 4x4 vehicle to stay out of trouble. Too many people make mistakes like this and thank goodness for Casey and his generosity!
Nice work brother! Way to take care of visitors and guests!
That’s a great explanation. Casey’s PSA off the day.
He needs to come back when there's no snow on the ground and warmer weather! Good job finding them and getting their Alfa out!
I love seeing you use the ole Ford wrecker!! Who cares if its the right truck for the job, it looks to be really fun to use and cruise around in!
UR THE MAN CASEY!!! ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO !!
That guy was so grateful omg. Casey you are a kind alien from outer space. For real.
Way cool nice work thanks for your time 👍👍👍👍👍
Casey love your videos I have a question did the lady ever find her car that was loss in the middle of nowhere 😂
Funny, I was thinking the same thing. Would be interesting to find out.
Don’t ever do that again ! 😂 you tell ‘em Casey
Greetings, Professor Falken. Shall we play a game?
@@GELongoria . Hopefully not "Global Thermonuclear War"! That's a "strange game", "the only winning move is not to play". 🤔
@@GELongoria . ... "How about a nice game of chess?"
Nice job Casey!!!!!
