Just thought we could post some ideas for self retrieval from being bogged on a wet bush road! This is going to happen to me this wet season up in the NT, so was hoping for some good ideas.
Scenario.
Gravel road. Sloppy as hell, many areas with water over road and depth markers arnt always a good guide as there may have been truck through before you cutting ruts in the middle. As the water is brown you cannot see the bottom. Pre walking the crossings not always a good idea as there may be crocs in the area.
No trees to winch off? What would you use to get out?
Going back usually means a lost job or not getting home. Plus not safe to leave vehicle as it prob won't be there when you get back, so work on the theory we have to get through.
I look forward to seeing what you would take or use, star pickets etc.
Any ex Telstra guys will know exactly what I mean. Think Palumpa to Wadeye
