Brückenbau über Sumpf! MB ZETROS 4x4, Grand Tour EWR Kabine ♦ 'BRIDGE WIZARDS' Expedition!

And so they rolled out of the mire..:
After an intense survey of the area, the comrades realized that retracing their steps was still their best option. Around them, there was only muddy swampland, with deep furrows, marshy ditches, and water-filled channels crisscrossing the area. Then we'll have to build a road said Robin, pointing directly to the spot where they had struggled the truck through the marshy stream. Okay, let's separate the boys from the men and get started replied the lieutenant. Luckily, there is this plastic drainage pipe they would need and whatever pieces of wood were still left, as some had been swallowed up by the ground without a trace. And today, it would be the same: digging, digging, and more digging. But the Deltaforce team was motivated, uplifted by yesterday's success. The most significant challenge in the past few days, apart from the physical strain, was the mental stress. It wasn't clear until the last moment whether they would really manage to free the truck. Encouraged by their triumph from the previous day, they pushed on with vigor. It wasn't just the physical exertion they battled with; the mental strain was equally grueling. Until the very end, uncertainty loomed like a dark cloud over whether their efforts would liberate the trapped truck.
To make things clear about this situation: It was really bad luck! We were trying to find a passage between 2 highland roads and an Icelandic Ranger advised us to drive there - by saying: "yes, it's possible on the track and this truck goes anywhere anyways.."
But track conditions became worse - even before there was no poles more to see, but tracks from cars we followed.. then poles came back- we were still on the track! Finally as I stayed on this desolate way - I got stuck. The track WAS already in a devastation condition, I did stay on this track as I didn't want to off road it to pass the impassable part..
No signal for mobile phones - and nobody since 2 days around..! What was our options?
So we digged it out for 4 days and turned around..
Shovel and wood we brought back to the shelter plus a good amount of alcohol we deposited there..
I completely respect nature - in this case we just worked on a track that was destroyed before!
Btw: 250m ahead the track ended anyways at impassable rivers..

But track conditions became very bad. Finally as we stayed on this desolate way - we got stuck. The track WAS already in a devastation condition, I did stay on this track as I didn't want to off road it to pass around the impassable part.. No signal for mobile phones - and nobody since 2 days around..! What were our options? So we digged it out for 4 days and turned around.. Shovel and wood we brought back to the shelter plus a good amount of alcohol we deposited there - to 'pay' for borrow tools.. I completely respect nature - in this case we just worked on a track that was destroyed before!

[@peteruppert]

yapp, ufff!

[@markuswissing3994]

@@peteruppert wie habt ihr eigentlich den Ersatzreifen hinten wieder montiert bekommen? Beim demontiert lies sich der Halter ja nicht absenken, oder hab ich das falsch in Erinnerung? Den Reifen zu zweit wieder auf den Halter hoch wuchten?

[@markuswissing3994]

Schoen das ihr bei all den Strapazen euren Humar nicht verloren habt.

[@peteruppert]

yo, man macht so gut wie man kann - den umständen entsprechend..

[@GottTS]

Gerade erst das letzte Video angeguckt und schwupp ist schon die nächste Folge da - das nenne ich Service! Dafür gibt es einen Daumen nach oben und die Glocke wird aktiviert 😀!

[@peteruppert]

..das freut mich wirklich sehr, vielen Dank!

[@peteruppert]

du fährst einen Mercedes G Klasse? klasse!!

[@GottTS]

@@peteruppertinzwischen fahre ich Puch G-Klasse. Laut Papieren war es immer schon ein Puch, wurde damals aber (leider) mit Stern-Logos ausgeliefert. Inzwischen ist alles auf original Puch-Teile getauscht. Die Marke Mercedes hat mich in den letzten Jahren mit ihrer Firmenpolitik und ihrer Wokeness zu oft geärgert und enttäuscht. Aber um zur Grundfrage zurück zu kommen - JA, ich fahre G-Klasse 😀.

[@peteruppert]

ya stimmt, das ist grundsätzlich ein Steyr-Puch! Auch mit Stern drauf cooles Auto und ja- ich bin da ganz bei dir, was die Mercedes Firmenpolitik betrifft..!@@GottTS
