1. So you dont hold them up and
2. They can ferry survivors to the top.

Just as a side note, Would the club be hosting the same event/trail again in the next year or so, or is the expectation that it would be a while before there is sufficient interest?

Let me explain:
Baboons is about 21km & you can do it in a day - if all goes well.
CarnageCanyon you need 33" or bigger & will be driving HARD for two days before you get to the 'Beach' if all goes well.
Carnage is 6km from start to finish.

We will be having a Planning Meeting in October to plot out the major events for 2020.
We may include Baboons... who knows...

No. Suzuki's up front. We are going to get bored waiting while the big boys build roads wide enough for them to get through.Estee wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 12:01 pmSchweet, put the Jeeps and Hummer in front:Martin de Jager wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 10:25 amEstee, thanks for the advise, exactly as I planned it.

Sorted front LED spot lights and rear facing small roof mounted spot lights on Tiny
As it is out of experience that in difficult terrain at night with out light at the rear things can get difficult
Tomorrow cleaning Tiny and sorting recovery Gear and Equipment that will be going in the equipment boxes
Plan for the worst and be ready for Murphy
