At this time, the Jimny had only two-wheel drive due to a problem with the vacuum axle head lock. Looking for a suitable crossing point, two off-road vehicles from the Chinese Academy of Sciences approached from the opposite bank. The river didn’t look wide, but it was actually quite deep.
The v73 of the scientific expedition team crossed the river to support the bottom, and the chicken winch rescued it.
