Well guys it was a massive weekend and I have some great photos. There was a great crew of guys out with me and I don't think any of us will ever forget this trip.
I have a fair bit to share about some of the recoveries we were forced to undertake and lessons to be learned from this. I did a triple line pull with my himount and had a 12,000 winch on a second car helping and saw both winches stall out and it took almost 2 hours to become unstuck out of a very sticky bog. Quite extraordinary!
6 cars went in, every car was as modified as my GQ or better and everyone was very experienced in vehicle recovery and the extreme end of our hobby. Safety was number 1 and all care and thought was undertaken. Equipment was tested to its limit and some to failure as noted above.
There were No Cowboys in our group just good men and a great woman that knew what they needed to do and how to get it done.
Come What May.
When I get near my computer I will post a few forum friendly pics.
Cheers Fellas
MR

After rebuilding my winch Friday night i got into the bush late but caught up to the crew pretty quickly. got on the track at midnight
The Dung Beetle was my Navi and he was out of the car early and got into it.
The hole was DEEP
Really DEEP!
