Default Uerbechtsbierg viewpoint ( L) not advised.
Beautiful weekend in Bourscheid Luxembourg.. Gaia gps showed a nice trial. Shortcut to our destination.

This trial started easy, got a little bit narrower, got quickly almost to small for the wide Defender. No way back or other possible turning. Very steep hill aside.
Managed to keep it on track with several winching for repositioning. 1 tree did win from my fender when the rear slipped away. Very scarry moment.

Walked to the viewpoint, luckily there I could turn. Despite very cautious driving back a sharp rock won from my tire. Managed to get out and we changed the tire back on the road. Pff..



So we've got enough adrenaline for now. 😂

Impressive! In all my years off-road I’ve never done in a tire like that! Fun stuff!

Land Rover Seattle shared some of their shots from a fortnight ago.

This rocky terrain was a little outside my comfort zone. Sliders will be my next mod. Much needed.




Met some very fine folks.

Track was in pretty decent shape today. A few rocky spots with some drop offs in wait. Not been up this one before. Not another soul for miles.

Nothing wild here but got to spend a little time driving through some back fields in Wisconsin. My D90 felt right at home.
