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 durable these family-friendly rigs are?
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!!!
