had one of these above moments on the weekend out at Janowen 4wd pk a hill shall we say didnt look to bad from the bottom looked a little loose and a rock step at the top but not too steep well with in the scope of hekarewe's capabilities and mine so lets give it a lash i did have to winch the last few feet over the lip to the top and then when looking at how i was going to get back down is when i realised it was a really bad idea to go up in the first place but what goes up must go down even if it involves your bum cheaks swallowing your drivers seat and ripping the steering wheel of the column trying to help the car slow down on the landslide that we shall call a )ahem ) controled decent. enjoy the pics i will try and get them in order.

Was that the scrabbly hill in the back corner? With the track pretty much ending up the top?

I was there on the weekend and it is a pretty good climb. But coming down you really don't want to go fast! Still a good fun hill though!

Don't recall seeing you there, but if you saw a Gu, My GQ a GQ ute, A prado and a Rodeo, that was me!

Cheers!

How bout when you drive down a nice steep little drop off, then realise that the 2 foot wide puddle at the bottom was a foot and a half deep slop lol.

True was no ass puckering just a double winch recovery lol.

This on the other had was a similar experience to yours, pointed her down a track which was clay in the pooring rain.... Lost control and lucky for me she mounted the track to the left then followed a cut out drain. Still dont know how I didnt bend something that day.

The track looking down.
