Report - Looking for Casper in Badayer - Booooo

Post by Georges »

We all met more or less on time in a very nice morning. We met with Carlo's intermediate trip before we departed. There was a new joiner so did an ANIT.

The great crew was made of:

Billet - Second lead
loefflmj1 - Sweeper
Celikkol
orhumi

We started with a technical part and then went through a more easy path. We did not find Casper the ghost but we did find few stucks and second tries. It was a very good learning experience and some team members were able to perform a recovery for the first time hence improving their skills.

I want to thank Billet (Ajesh) for a solid second lead changing paths when needed.

Thank you also to loeffmj1 (Mark) for a good sweep and his assistance in performing some of the recoveries.

Celikkol you did well for your ANIT and just continue learning about your car and the desert and you will enjoy it even more.

Good driving by orhumi and yes the LR can do very well.

When we came back to the inflation point there was a recovery truck picking up a car which rolled over (not an AD4x4 trip) reminding everyone that safety comes first and we should always ensure we are in control of our vehicle.

Thank you all for participating to this morning trip and hope to see you again soon.

Thank you Georges for leading a great drive and your technical inputs which helped greatly in maneuvering the dunes and spotting optimum stoppage points.

Till next time..

Thank you Georges. Good trip. First recovery for me, I should have remembered to have you sign off my skill book for it. Maybe next time. Still curious about pajero and if the ABS traction control had been fully turned off. Car did not seem responsive to drivers wishes.
Thanks again for your time and knowledge.
