The Tuff Truck Challenge is/was Australia's premier off-road 4x4 rock crawling event, held annually in Milbrodale, New South Wales, since 2001. This three-day spectacle pits teams of drivers and navigators against some of the most brutal terrain imaginable—think jagged boulders, deep mud pits, and near-vertical climbs. It's not about speed; it's about precision, control, and sheer grit.

​

Working with Offroad Images for the event, an Australian-based professional photography and videography company specializing in off-road and adventure content. Led by the legendary Michael Ellem, it was an absolute learning experience. They focus on capturing the rugged beauty of Australia's landscapes and the vehicles that traverse them.
