Lets post up some recovery stories, with a Hummer doing the recovery :wink:
we could also analise the recovery and look for possible problems that can arise from the setup used during the recovery :thumbs:
I will go first:
We went to a local track this weekend, and after playing in the river, the Land Rover Discovery (Puma) was unable to exit the river (after a light drizzel)
The landy occupants started packing rocks to assist but this was done in vain
after 9 or 10 attempts to scale the river bed, the landy finally gave way for the hummer, and low and behold, I scaled that lil slippery obstacle in the first attempt. Now it was time to get the Landy up there.
Unfortunately the strap was too long and the angle of recovery to great, the Hummer just slid close to the trees next to the water. So we tripple folded the recovery strap. and then slowly assisted the Landy up the river embankment.
