Orange whachamacallit

This weird-looking thing caught my eye. It looks like it might be a traction device of some sort. Sure enough, it is a MAXTRAX vehicle extrication mat. It's made in Australia and comes in numerous lovely colors. Retail cost in the USA is $300 a pair. The company's website has numerous photos of the thing being used in sand. In the photo above there are two, one nested inside the other.

 

Seen in Phoenix at the Paradise Valley REI store.

 

The Green Weenie has this technology built in.

(Note to Jim Doss: I probably should have informed you of this before telling the world. Sorry.)
