Quick stop in the rainforest. It might have been New Guinea 1942! |

Rainforest |

Large tree that had fallen across the track |
 |
Pulling the broken trunk with a jeep rope and the WC-52 |
 |
Track cleared so onward we go, deeper into the rainforest |
 |
One of the five trees that had fallen across our path during the weekend |
 |
The WC-52 fails to tug this tree aside. Two jeep axes working each end of the tree had to be used so we could get past |
 |
The WC-52 gets hung up on some logs. Digging out the other side wheel enabled it to be bounced clear sideways |
