Yup, it certainly is, not a problem for the Jimny's though . However aggressive, nobbly tyres and a lift are a must because the mud is so deep and boggy!

And they blame us for wrecking lanes, the bar stewards.

I believe that it used to be worse but someone has come along and moved most of the massive trees out of the way.

used to be a fantastic little lane through the darkness of the trees with roots and rocks to negotiate.

I'd read on another forum that the Forestry Commission were to repair the damage caused by their operations, probably best avoided until then. The only other people that get to see this are mainly walkers and they will conclude that it's 'off roaders' that have screwed it up. It doesn't want to end up getting a TRO

looks like you got all the sorts of weather there jelous of your route looks awesome if only i were closer and jimmy finished lol

battersby did used to be alot worse a couple of weeks ago we had no chance of getting through but it has been straightned a bit but it has just made it really slippy. there was a jeep at the front with a winch and me at the back with a winch thats why adam was in the middle lol. at wilton off road centre where some of the pics where taken i went 1st through it all incase i go stuck and did in the massive puddle . i couldnt go forward tho im not sure if jimnys sink or swim lol. was a great day tho:laugh:
