Hey guys,
Stu, sorry I was already out of range we were there from Thursday, first ones in :-)
Nige, I hope it wasn't too much action for your first trip with us, those recoveries took Time, late finish.
Stevo, ohhh yeah, I took some footage with Kurts camera of the guys playing on a slippery hill, this makes for good entertainment.
Then we did some great tracks, stories to long to tell here atm......
Short version the prados did well, the replacement beast I'm very happy with what it achieved with only a mild lift.
Did take a bit of extra time with helping 3 stuck vehicles before us on a new switchback after the exit of the creek. (Deep crk1)
Then I think it was the Gq on 36" and Gu on 33" Mtz that held us up & struggled a tad more than the prados :-)
My a/t did pretty well & as usual Kurt really showed off the Prado brand.

That river crossing shot shows how deep it is when the water at the rear is up onto the spare.
Yes mine was lapping the bonnet, no snorkel no problems
Remind me not to go there if its any deeper lol......
Very nice track with some technical crossings.
Nice pix & video again Kurt, good selection of trucks, but only saw your 150 attempt the slippery hills?? Looks like the Saturday Deep Creek tracks was the best day.
Cheers
Steve

Yes it was a long good day but even though we were stuck in the creek waiting for the recovery of the group in front of us for hours in the rain I hardly got any video of it. There were a couple of other great river crossings. But the deep creek exit was a challenge very slippery and well cut up by the trucks in front. I will try and put some of the other scraps of videos from the other parts of the days.

Kirk, talking to Anthony as I watch your video that looks sick and we both love your music. Lol
The music was the first in the list and it seemed appropriate at the time. The car certainly launches itself around the 14s mark of the first video a couple of airborne wheels halfway up the hill.
