Tow Industry Week published a feature on off-road recovery operations that push tow operators into extreme terrain including mud, snow, steep embankments, and water crossings, documenting the specialized equipment and training required for recoveries that standard wreckers cannot handle, according to Tow Industry Week. The feature highlighted how off-road recovery has become a growing niche market.
