Hook a chain up to the hitch and around a nice solid tree and give it a tug. Just make sure you have the pin out of the hitch first

Snug it up so the chain is tight, back it off so theres a tiny bit of slack and give it a snap. It will pop right off. We've done it a million times and nothing bad has ever happened.
