Comment: Gibson Desert - Sandy Blight Junction Road - Sir Frederick Range & on t

Mick, I never tire at reading your blogs or looking at your videos. They are always full of info and fun... What happened with the truck stuck east of Docker? Was he bogged, broke, or both?
regards

Cheers Fred. He had a bogie rear axle which only drove on the front set of tyres so it ran out of puff due to the corrugations. Quite often the drive tyres would be off the road surface. Poor bloke. He'd have to ereverese (if he could), and try and get a decent run up at it.

Thanks for the kind words. Mick
