 Winching 101
Today was our first lesson in recovery. We decided that it would be wise to be prepared for anything when we go off-road. Recovery expert Justin Green, who works for BCDS (Back Country Driving School), spent a couple of hours with us going over all the basics--winch extension cables, snatch blocks, tree savers, kinetic ropes, shackles, recovery straps, etc. You don't mess around with 18,000 pounds!!!
