There is no shortage of massage guns on the market. You can find massagers that range in price from $50 to well over $500, but they’re all fairly similar in form and function. For the most part, every massager you’ll find is vaguely shaped like a gun and uses percussive force to massage muscle tissue.

While getting stuck in muck is rare — it does occasionally happen. An experienced hiker found that out the hard way in Arches National Park on Sunday, when a normal day on the trail turned into a scary ordeal.
