Hey folks.
Hope all are well.
A query.
As you know we're back in the wet season down under. We recently put in some new fencing infrastructure at our property entrance (fences, gates, end assemblies). This changed the route of our track through some very soft clay soil that gets saturated after protracted rains.
Yesterday I bogged the LandRover driving back into the property. Not a bad bog. Just the mud tyres get clogged with mud and don't get traction. Winched out but made a bit of a mess.
So now I'm going to need to put down an all weather track through or over the bog. Its not something I've ever had to do before. It occurrs to me that you pommie blokes would know a thing or two about mud..
Saw an interesting idea on You Tube using old tyres buried, filled with pebbles or gravel and layered with gravel and sealed with road-base (cracker dust).
Any ideas? How to build an all weather road through a deep bog.
Alan
