Landcruiser fans will not be happy
Thought it was great, the best for a while - just because of the 4x4s.

wrt to the "high altitude drive", I have ridden in a 2WD standard, road-going taxi to very nearly that altitude on the same type of road surface in Ecuador.
... and the final downhill gravel slope did look great, but more a case of subjective danger than objective danger.

Great show
But May going at JC with the Machette was a little OTT Even if planned it gave the wrong message

Karl Trunk and Bob Ives from Wildtrackers looked after the vehicles & prepared the route. They were involved in Camel Trophy '94 which did roughly the same route. (Bob won CT in 89). In fact route was a nice mix of CT'94 and the 2006 G4!
Thought the radio kit sounded nice and clear! Off Roading is OK.... But I'd rather be Boating!

I thoroughly enjoyed it, even if some of it was staged, it was a great adventure.
If anyone wants to pick faults, I did not see them using gloves to handle the winch cable.
