comment below from someone in the convoy.





Okay let's put a bit of context to this. Fj was lead car this crossing is at the bottom of a long decent in which we had a 10 car convoy. Patrol was 3rd in convoy and already had strap at back of car in prep for things like this from others in convoy. Fj driver is a 25 year experienced 4x4 driver who had a lapse in judgement and went before everyone could consult. As you can see by photo water was a lot lower at first crossing and patrol was a good 200m away. First instinct to save time was to snatch as it was all there, not planning to snatch cars Infront. From there a shackle to the tree was made and wind out but by the time it was set up this was the position second photo. Guys were willing but decided not worth getting sucked under and dying so from there it was just a let's save the owner mission. Yes there was no anchor on patrol to hold vehicle but tree was 1 m away which was going to be used as anchor if car wouldn't hold. Car has been snatched to tree and left there. Owners went back today and saw a group of people trying to cross same spot. Even after people saw the car and heard the story they thought they could go until common sense prevailed. Main thing is people safe, fun was had lessons learnt and memories created. Stay safe
