OAUSA Net September 21, 2017 – Winching & Recovery

[toms]

Tonight’s topic is vehicle recovery.
Recovery operations are some of the highest risk operation we do off road. All of the tools are dangerous and are potentially lethal. Winches in particular deserve a great deal of respect.
We can discuss safety, gear, riggings, techniques, other issues.
Most of us use our winch very infrequently. This is an opportunity to refresh our knowledge.

We can discuss a variety of tools and techniques for self-recovery in the time we have .

Bring your questions and issues for a robust discussion.
