Not giving the 4x4 crowd a good rep though is it! Just more ammo for the antis to get the few rights of way we have left taken :argh: not that there is a vehicular right of way up snowden but still whoever that was is a :tosser: hope he gets his frontera crushed!

I dunno. It's a silly thing to do but I suspect the fella wanted a challenge that was a little bit different. Possibly wanted to get on telly too. Not sure if I want to cheer him on or clock him one.

I'd love to just drive up to the top now... doesn't look that difficult?

I mean, why didn't they just follow the nice flat-ish train tracks, rather than getting stuck haha

:hahaha: :hahaha: :hahaha:

a bit wrong but fairplay if it was the same guy who drove it. He might as well get his moneys worth as he was gunna be prosecuted anyway.

still about 30m short of the summit tho!

Not sure???? the frontera was on ebay and all the money from the auction was going to go to the mountain rescue?

However the listing was removed so whether or not someone bought it and then decided to drive it up there again? who knows? :hahaha:
