    Drive Details
    Level:  Fewbie and above (all levels)
    Meeting time:  08:30 AM
    Meeting Point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Xxuzpq1951hX6FgD7
    Action Plan: Yet another overland desert drive, which will be dedicated to covering approximately 100 Km of open sand and tracks. The plan is to go from an entry point on E40 well west of Al Ain and a bit south of Al Khaznah, further south toward the interior of the Al Ain region, to reach the Tree Dune (no less than 40 Km into the sand). Here we'll enjoy a pic-nic lunch in the shade of the date palm trees that give the name to this location, before either turning back toward our entry point, or continuing west toward a track road that will take us out on the tarmac of E40, quite close to Al Khaznah.
    As usual with these overland drives, the route will favor the safety of the drive and is more focused on developing the drivers' endurance skills, rather than on adrenaline and thrills, as the keys to true overland drives are consistency, mental focus, patience, and the choice of the best, cleanest routes. Along the route, we'll share tips on orienteering and navigating in open spaces. Having said this, the nature of the terrain is complex enough that we'll have to overcome both technical terrain, as well as driving through tall dunes and deep bowls. All skills will be tested.
    What to bring along: Loads of water, snacks (for yourself), smiles, face masks, rubber gloves, enthusiasm, and willingness to learn.
    Approximate finish time: 04:30 PM
    P.S. Only join if you have a compressor to inflate your tires after the drive.
