Great story Daz and a great experience for all those involved, Zach will never forget it.
Do you think you could have got it out with your GQ? I have yet to see this mythical GQ. ;)
I actually enjoyed every minute of it to be honest, was a tough day but there no real stress and no arrogant or demanding people on the hill. We just got it done and everyone went home safe.
I don't think Matt got why I was not angry with him, truth be told your on the money Rossco, every one of us has been there, I certainly have and will remember those lessons for ever. He grew a little on that hill and that's a good thing.
Yeah was frustrating because I would have just gone home and swapped cars. Would have had no trouble sorting it out with the GQ. Might go back for a look when it's going :p A few mates are already asking whether it's worth another look. Hehehehe.
Yeah Zach fair dinkum had a Rippa weekend. 200 rounds out of the .22 for fun, a few stalking walks, a big muddy recovery, he hasn't really seen one before and he was actively participating which was fantastic, and then a fast run in the comp truck wearing full race harnesses and hanging on to the Roll Cage! He might have taken a couple of pics to school ;) :p
Agree, your nephew will grow and learn immensely from this and he'll be an infinitely better offroad driver because of it. I know I had my "awakening" from my police rescue incident, but that's a campfire story with trusted companions, not for here! Similar in so many ways: new to 4x4, inexperienced, under-prepared, under-equipped, the long hike out, etc etc! Ahh the memories!
