I am reaching out to anyone in the 4WD community who can offer support in a time of need. While wheeling in the Carnarvon area, myself along with a friend managed to get both our vehicles stuck in water/mud. Thankfully all occupants made it home safe tonight with the help of some very generous locals. Unfortunately, both vehicles were abandoned until a later date when a recovery could be undertaken.
We are hoping to put together a small team of wheelers willing to offer assistance. As you can probably anticipate, we are very anxious to get these vehicles out as soon as possible as they are partly submersed in water/mud. We are hoping for a recovery during the week or weekend the latest. Any assistance you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
If you are able to help, please contact me in the following ways:
– personal message
– post a message on this thread
– klbeans@msn.comThanking all in advance.

I maybe available Sunday if you still don't have them out.
Which trail are they stuck on and approx how far in?
Also, post this on our facebook page as many members have had good results there during simular situations.

Hi everyone, sorry for the delayed reply. We were out yesterday afternoon/evening getting the trucks out.
We were able to recover both vehicles quite easily using a highlift thanks to JAS on the CNTC forum. Awesome & fun guy, super knowledgeable.
Thanks to everyone for their support.
