On a 2 week 4x4 safari in deep South Island. Pic taken in Skippers Canyon, once known as the worlds richest river. Old gold prospecting town long long ago abandoned once the gold was all played out. See if you can find it on Google Earth. Awesome trail. I'll post a few pics in a separate thread if there is any interest.

Then a very challenging day in 2015.
Elmo didn't make it!
We were headed to Mass and a guy ran a red light, we were 6 deep inside. We didn't see him until 1 second to impact due to a blind spot.
I was driving, I tried to hit the brakes and it was too late. We didn't slow down at all. We hit and then spun around backwards. All frontal airbags went off and we were lucky that we didn't roll. We were going around 45 at impact.
Thank God my family was not hurt, and thank God the other driver didn't have a passenger! He broke his arm and got a few scratches. Everyone inside Land Cruiser was fine. We did get some bruises and had to get some therapy etc.. nothing major, and no broken bones. If you study the pictures it's mind boggling that we pushed that other car so far, without rolling it etc...
Both cars were total losses. Luckily I had purchased the land cruiser right and received above what I paid for it from the insurance company. Needless to say we got another land cruiser. Momma went back to a GX and I sold my truck and got the white 200 LC.
the color of the water in your first photo is awesome - great shotsOn a 2 week 4x4 safari in deep South Island. Pic taken in Skippers Canyon, once known as the worlds richest river.

Thank you, I am not sure of the name or brand, my 3 year old was behind me in a seat that has sides, head, and seat support. My 5 year old was in the third row and she was sitting on a booster. Two teenagers were in the middle and passenger side rear seats with seat belts.
I love your setup man! I've been looking through your pics. I'm not result to go full outback like a bunch of dudes on here. I mean, if like to but it's my daily driver currently. I plan on keeping it forever so eventually I'll dress it up.
