This happened today. My mate needed to drop off a car shell at a place near Govenors Bay. He didn't tell me that the hill was south facing and wet and boggy. With the help of my mates friend and Corey we managed to get my truck off the hill. What an effort. The vid doesn't show how steep it was or how slippery things were.

It's about 10 minutes from Lyttelton on the way to Governors Bay.
