Ya, that's part of the Lagoda Lake Challenge I think. I saw the photo of the drowning truck previously. Amazing the occupants got out safely. Cool stuff!

Hopefully we don't run into this level of mud this coming weekend! :lol: :lol:

I found a library of photos of the Lake Lagoda Rally. Not quite a video, but great viewing to augment Kris' video link:

Somehow I don't think they've figure out the tread lightly thing over in Russia yet, though.
