Eight grand later … a recovery story

Earlier this month, a couple of guys did Thompsons Track, one of the North Island's toughest trails. One was in a Land Cruiser 70 the other in a Prado. Both got horribly stuck. What happened next is recorded in a lengthy thread on the Off-Road Express forum. If you're planning on going tough off-roading without the proper equipment and the training to use it properly, first have a browse through this thread.

  4. They were not not that unprepared and were not horribly stuck. They were sufficiently well equipped to handle the conditions until their progress was hampered by mechanical failures. The behaviour of a BOP 4WD club officer on the other hand has been appalling.
