Who was that beautiful girl at the expedition trophy?! My goodness.

I have a question about the rigging for Bill's recovery on Truck Hill, also posted here:
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?p=4862516#4862516
it looks like the winch line that went thru a block, and used to bring the Van upright, was anchored somewhere on the climbers right side of the hill?
Does anyone know what they anchored to? Was there a vehicle there (on side hill in the bushes) too, for a total of 3 vehicles doing the recovery?
I wonder if there would have been any way to anchor Bills Van until help arrived, so he would not have had to try backing down the hill.. for example a pull pal? http://www.pullpal.com/
The issue was that Bill did not think he could not keep his foot on the brake without his muscles fatiguing or cramping before help could arrive..

Ha ha Christian! Thanks very much but I'm happily married yet I feel it's important to pay compliment where compliment is due. I'm talking about the woman with the dark hair and army hat that was giving trophy drivers the coordinates for the rest of the course.
Of course everyone is beautiful in their own way, right?!![]()
What kind of beer was this?

I'll let Justin tell his story about the Chaser's demise, but I can tell you we got it back home without too much trouble at all.
The Chaser was amazingly easy to repair in the field though, a true testament to the robust simplicity of the design![]()
The Chaser Rocks and I am looking forward to building it back - bigger and better!!
