That wasn't a close call, that was a direct hit. Good driving by the truckie to only cop the bonnet area and avoid oncoming traffic.

Oh do tell, @Pengy

Someone go exploring on their own?... Looks like you could let your tires down a bit
What's with the straight line coming towards the camera from your towbar?

That's a bugger @Pengy.
Looks like you could do with a slightly heavier tow rope too.

That's not a tow rope!
It's a trip wire for the camera man so he to can have mud on his face

Yep, solo reccy mission to check out a spring hunting spot.
The straight line is a blade of grass, so not much help at all really.

A wider angle pic would show the river about 2 metres in front of the wagon, and the fact that the driverside rear is in as deep as the front.
No cell coverage. No recovery gear. Nearest property was about ten km back.
The only way to get through the river/big creek, meant clipping the side of that mud hole. Unfortunately, the front end slid into it

A bit of rock n rolling back and forth got her out eventually, after 2o mins or so,

The worst part, is that the only reason it happened was because I wanted to get to the track end, which was across the water. It turned out the track finished about 50 mts
round the bend on the other side
