The video is not of the crossing that benefited from my spotting. Still, neither of us is familiar enough with what this vehicle is capable of. The camper is a lightweight model designed for rodeoing. But even with naught mor'n the bare necessities, pulling it up -- time after time -- out of even these little arroyos, is enough to make one wonder how much are these vehicles really capable of?
In addition there was this magical rock.
The magical rock photo is art. I like it on multiple levels.

That's where 4-wheel low comes in handy. Maybe not so much for the traction in this case but for the low-end grunt power.

DeleteThere was some risk of hanging up one or the other of the ends, but some shoveling would've fixed that. Though it's nice to have a spotter, as you've likely experienced, caution & patience will usually see the soloist through.
Were you able to cross it?
ReplyDeleteYes.
DeleteMany thanks for alerting us to Anne Brigman. Beautiful work!!!
