[QUOTE="WalnLiz, post: 651983, member: 147"] I still vividly remember a trip to a favourite gold location of ours in the remote Kimberly a few years ago, where we came across a young family well and truly bogged in their 4wd. They had been in that situation for 7 days and were almost out of food. Luckily water wasn't a problem as that's what caused their dilemma in the first place. I would hate to think what could have happened had we not turned up when we did, as the nearest town was 140km away through some of the most inhospitable country we have encountered. Disaster can come in a blink of an eye, and something as simple as preparation can avoid heartbreak for family and friends when things go pear shaped. 😢 [/QUOTE]
