I don't consider the Axis well suited to FS road travels! There's a lot of roads and campsites it simply can't traverse gracefully. When driving the dingy to find places just think how would I get the Axis here and can I get it out? Think about where each wheel is and consider how to position them as they roll so that the ground doesn't come up and take a bite out of the rig.
A toad or trailer becomes a land anchor in mud or sand. The good thing with a toad is that they can be disconnected and driven through separately. In these conditions (if you must) keeping controlled momentum is key to getting through, hesitation or too wild, will get you stuck. Sometimes however, pushing the wild side is the only way through
Best to know when to leave or just stay put until things dry out!
