Yep very muddy,was about 1500 -2000km overall like that,took about 3 weeks
some days only 2 kms!!!, came back and joined the Landrover club and a olderguy looked down his nose at the young pup (me)asked me if I had had any experience at driving in mud!!! replied I had a little. mud was like that sticky clay that turns into mud and sticks like something..... to a blanket

some Mud driving in 1980s Zaire and a ferry crossing on one of the many rivers
1964 series 2a Landrover went from London to south Africa and back London down the west coast of Africa and up the east side on the way back
Sorry i am not good at this uploading click on the photos

As above all in central Zaire
