On Friday the 13th of July, 2012, Thomas headed out to the family farm with some friends and family for their traditional annual hunt.

Unbeknownst to them, but knownst to us, there was a sh*tstorm of snow brewing in the Agtersneeuberg Nature Reserve. And four unlucky hunters got stuck in it. And yes, they were in a Land Rover Defender. 

With half the team back at the farm planning a rescue through a gale-force blizzard, and those trapped in the car having completely run out of whiskey, things were looking dire. This is the story of how they got stuck, how it can snow INSIDE a Defender, and how they got out. Enjoy. 

Since we've got you here, could we ask you a big favour? If you're listening on iTunes, could you pop over to The Hard Way and leave us a review? 

We'd love to hear what you think of the show and if you've got any suggestions. Alternatively, drop us a voice note at www.speakpipe.com/thehardway

Cheers.
