Great Job! I'd rather spend a holiday with you blokes doing something like that than sat on a beach somewhere.

Strange to think that it was driven there under its own power.Where was it Ian or shouldn't I ask? Looks a lot like it was along the Murray somewhere.

... wonderful story. Now that I've seen those pics I think I should have postponed my flight back home, shouldn't I, Rusty?
How did you bring the carrier those 4m downhill? I think that was a recovery in good old "bush mechanic tradition" style ![]() Greetings Chris

Thanks again for the comments. Yes it was somewhere along the Murray so fortunately no crocs (well I didn't see any).
It was lowered down the embankment with the hand winch. Unfortunately we didn't get any photos of it being lowered down the embankment as everyone was too busy with the operation. I have got some video of it though which I'm working on uploading. Ian |

"was a bit nose heavy "?
that's an understatement, like being a bit pregnant..
