The Rangers headed out this week to do 4WD Recovery Techniques Training, and there was no shortage of opportunities to get vehicles bogged in different ways.

The group got hands on practice using the various recovery techniques required to retrieve vehicles in a range of situations.

Understanding how to drive to conditions and how to recover a vehicle that gets stuck are important skills to have in our landscape, and determining the type of driving and recovery operation required to meet conditions is essential.

The group also learned the importance of having the right recovery tools on hand when heading out bush.

Recovery tracks, winch, extension straps and shovel are just a few of the “never leave home without them” pieces of equipment this time of year, and don’t forget the SAT phone!
