Had good storms over the last 4 days, the wet has only begun and we have our 1st victim , Rav 4 belongs to a Scottish Lass that works here on the Station in the accomodation part, she didn't know it ws better to drive through the big puddle on track instead of going around it, she was going to start the
water pump, anyhow it was an easy extraction using the Station Triton, I still have nightmares about my big bog at end of last wet.

I'm sure she'll learn from the experience as we all do. Add some decent tyres to the experience and she'll fare much better in the future.
Cheers,
Jim.

Hi Doug
Yes that wonderful feeling of being bogged!!
That mega bog of yours would have been a reel test that is for sure and brings to mind that saying "It's moments like these you need Minties" You have gone through a few packets getting the Troopy out, that is for sure.
Keep high and dry.
Cheers
Stephen

hi Doug being a fellow nt resident i have been following your posts with interest just wondering what station you operate from, the early wet seems to be causing havoc right across the top end
