Not quite vertical Jim but suffice to say the washer jets were gushing fluid, this is the rear end in the mire

Pics are from my phone and for some reason are 90 deg out, sorry about that, this pic tried a single winch pull but no way, it demanded a double line and as the line was on the drum = 12 Tonne pull

Once we got out of that lot we emerged onto deep ruts at 90 deg to our direction and due to being on a fairly steep slope could not get the rear wheels into the correct ruts so got rathe close to a miss placed tree, no we did not touch it

That Patrol does really well and after all that if you were away it would then drag your caravan home.
I keep looking at Patrols but they don’t half hold their money don’t they. |
