I know exactly where you were at the end as when we went there last we ended up there but had to turn around because our depth measurement (Stefan  ) couldn't get through that water hole. Very boggy and very sticky!

Thanks for the tip! Should have thought about that.
Its a nasty spot. But I think you maxbroner went the track right next to it, which was even longer and deeper ^^
The actual problem started, when the pootrol slided with the back into the left hole. We couldn't recover him from the other side anymore and the winch started to make problems at the same time as well. So we had to drag him through the other hole, which was very difficult. On top of that his engine gave up.
So we tried to fix the winch, which took a while and then we lined up with the other patrol to put enough weight against it. Was not easy with the lack of space. Winch had to work very hard. But it worked. Glad it worked, he was stuck so bad at the end.
We towed him home. Mudflap, little bit of rear bumper and rear light was damaged. And a 200 dollar mechanic bill (As far I know something with timing belt), around 40 bucks + 4 hours car wash and one day off from work ^^
