The plow on
the left is cutting a "trace" through the elephant grass.
The plow appears to have driven into a ditch. Many operators
became victims of the terrain, due to the lack of visibility
through the thick foliage. On the right, plows can be seen
on the crest of the hill. In the center of the picture is
the 548 Trak. |

|
Once the trees, elephant
grass, etc. was cleared, the plows would finish clearing
inside the trace, pushing the debris into piles. |

The left picture, shows the
view from a plow, after the trace is cut.
While moving to the next area, the picture on the right,
shows plows in the distance working another trace. |

More views of the completed trace. In the distance, the 548
pulls security on the hill, in picture to the right. |

A plow sinks in the mud as he's trying to cross a creek.
On the right, another operator comes to the rescue with his
plow and winch. Backing into the water, hooking the winch
to the stuck plow, and pulling him out. |
