Here are a couple pictures (BC Curt Isacson) from a wreck the Escambia County (FL) Fire Department had the other day.  You can see the vehicle ended up down a ravine on its side.  It looks like they used struts for stabilization.

They made a low-angle rescue corridor with ladders and used haligans as pickets to prevent the ladders from sliding.  Do you have pickets?  If you don’t what is your plan for this type of scenario?  Haligans, prybars, tie the ladders off to the guardrail/tree/ rig.  How do we prevent the rig from moving if we use that option?
