Back in ancient times, when people were still able to travel freely during their holidays, I used to go on solo adventures in remote areas every other year. This spectacular painting by
SimarglArtist shows one of the little mishaps that I had while traveling in Iceland a few years ago. Iceland has a HUGE number of rivers that you have cross - but the only major car trouble I had was not while crossing a river (which needs quite some surveying and planning sometimes), but rather while following some well used tracks through some floodplains.
It worked rather well - until it suddenly started to rain A LOT, making the earthen road I was following into a huge mud bath. Despite having 4WD, I got stuck in the mud and my car (which had quite some clearance) bottomed out. I was a bit concerned about my position and I didn't know when the rain would stop, so I actually dug out my car with a shovel and my hands - very VERY similar to the scene in the picture
After quite some time, I manged to get it unstuck - JUST as the rain stopped. I changed clothes (I REALLY needed that), got off the muddy road and drove back on the gras next to the road, where the danger of this happening again was practically zero.

Well - that's a VERY good point - but ... you can maybe imagine that he does this afterwards: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/40204962/
There was a river nearby after all ... (I just changed clothes - and put them into one of my trash bags until I was able to properly wash them)

Simpy picking up the the car wound´nt work..... 1) you maul it
2) you sink your legs into the muddy ground under its wight...😂
Still you could skip the work with the jack if you pull up a single wheel with one hand and fill up the hole with the other. ....
In RL i have dug out my vehikels dozen times out of mud, more often out of sand in my years in africa........
Don´t mind faulty spelling and grammar.. i´m german....

Cars a to fragile to be simply pict up... I have seen 8 drunken "cool" boys.... they want to hide the little car of an annoying man...... 2 men on each wheel.....they pulled up..... and ripped off all 4 fenders......
I was almost beaten up because of my laughing fit ...
Autos sind zu zerbrechlich, um einfach hochgehoben zu werden ... Ich habe 8 betrunkene "coole" Jungs gesehen ... sie wollen das kleine Auto eines nervigen Mannes verstecken ... 2 Männer auf jedem Rad ... ..sie hoben an..... und rissen alle 4 Kotflügel ab ......
Ich wurde wegen meines Lachanfalls fast verprügelt....

I stopped counting the number of river crossings I had to do - it was REALLY fun tho.
At one point the F26 was actually pretty much identical to some river xD I guess the river changes every year or so - and when I came along it thought "oh that's a nice river bed!"
The picture shows the only time I struggled a bit with their "roads" :D Although I hear in the past 6 years (I was there in 2015) they improved their streets by a LOT
