Oops!!!
Haven't done THAT yet but nearly did on the Oodnadatta Track at Alberrie Creek in August. The mud/ooze was over the sidesteps front to rear on my 4x4. Took 6 of us 4 hours to dig, jack, pull, swear and 10 railway sleepers of the old Ghan railway to get it out. Once we broke the suction, it was a lot easier. I did think we would have to bring in an excavator to extract it.

So a downhill walk to the tractor would have been a soda.

Happy New Year, Robert.
