Re: WA Overland Rally
What an absolutely horrible recovery. Maybe the circumstances dictated the way they did it, but you are so right that was "not pretty."
They really needed an anchor point far more orthogonal to the direction of travel (Pull Pal and pulley block would have made a big difference), and they should have gone far slower. Very lucky the rig didn't flop on it's side. Even going forward rather than backward could have helped.
