Yeh was a good day. Good bunch of fullas we met up with. Showed us some new tracks we havnt seen before. The Terrano did pretty good but as expected nothing compared to old Paj. Too long, too low but it took a beating so i cant complain. Had a few tows throughout the day, ild hate to be out there alone lol. Im Trademe whoreing everynight on the lookout for something more suitable now :D

What buzzed me out is how many people go to woodhill without proper recovery points.
Saw so many tow ball snatch strap pulls :roll:

It happens and the experienced ones have to educate those who don't know the consequences.

Not growl or shout at them but politely educate about the dangers.

and when the recovery patrols come across such example step in and help out with a bit of guidance on correct procedure.
