(Part 1). Amphibious vehicle swim-in held over the first long weekend in winter. Arrival at the campsite was Saturday afternoon, after a 5 hour drive. Sunday morning was a 110km (70 mile) drive through local state forest in the jeeps, weapons carrier, half-ton Dodge, GPA seep. That afternoon saw the amphibs (three WW2 Ford GPA's, Coot, Amphicat) in the water. On Monday we packed up and stopped in at a club member's place to see his WWII Kenworth wrecker, which we all had a ride on. This footage combined from my own (camcorder and still camera in movie mode) and clubmember Bob's video. Thanks Bob!
