There must be different kinds of rainforests.
The US Pacific Northwest rainforest has a more persistent drizzle pattern with occasional daily showers.
Forest trees are covered in moss and the moss supports ferns and fungi growth.
The abundant undergrowth decay - a rich soft humus - isn't the sort of thing one wants to drive on.
Your forest photos look quite different - not what I would expect from a "rainforest".
Here's a rainforest image from Wikipedia and it looks like some of my backyard:
That is a temperate Rainforest that you get in the Pacific Northwest and parts of Australia that is different too a Subtropical/Triopical Rainforest you get in extreme Northern Australia and South East Asia.( Vietnam) Wooded Photo I showed with the TC is part of a normal Forest in Australia, not a Rainforest.
You still get TC’s going through that “Jungle” in Northern Australia
Here is a shot of Camper Trailer being dragged through a small river in the extreme North of Australia. It is very close too Papua New Guinea
Traditional TC’s might have problems in a place like this but many take their RV’sto the “ deep north”in Australia
