A few brand new Land Rovers Pedro , some may still be poking about.
And probably an infantry battalion indoors reading their training manual, aka Playboy.

I'm always wary using a snatch strap. Much prefer a winch recovery or a bit of serious shovel work.

It's a timely reminder of what is involved. The forces are immense.
When I moved the geophysical crew I was in charge of into the Simpson almost sixty years ago, a drilling rig had been moved in on a flotilla of about thirty trucks. They left Brisbane a day ahead of us, and travelled faster, so as we were going in, the last of the trucks were moving out. There was one very bad section of the road about 50 miles into the desert from Finke. We heard that when the loaded trucks were going in, they had a dozer there to help any that got stuck.
The spot was clearly marked for us by the large pile of truck bullbars and bumper bars. And many of the trucks we saw going in the other direction north of Finke as we approached the town looked very bare on the front!

Try getting away with that in Queensland!
Spotted on Moreton/Gnoorganbin/Mulgumpin.

At first I was worried they previous post was a seal but searching the image says it is a dugong.
Perhaps I should have named it. This may be more identifiable.Quote:
