They got it out with a dozer, the worst part was getting the chains hooked, they spent close to two hours hand digging through the muck to get two chains attached to the lower running gear and one to the boom, they then started to move it real slow, almost standing the dozer up on the back of its tracks, letting the nose slowly come back down, and then repeating several times until it finally came up out of the muck.
