The weather was definitely in our favor today. Upon arrival @Paul Zietsman and his son were spotting scorpions at the meeting point and it didn’t take long for the rest of the gang to join us.  
 

With @Murtaza Bhuria in second lead, who drove effortlessly even though he’d been out for a while, @Lucas behind him, followed by @Paul Zietsman and a very capable sweeper @DP1011 , Deepak wrangler we had a small convoy today and everyone drove great. I was actually glad to have that handful of small stucks so we got to enjoy the beautiful weather  

As time was running out, we quickly zipped through Murquab, even though this terrain has amazing scenery and dunes but we’ll keep that for the next time. 
 

Thanks to all for joining this morning ! See you soon in the sand again!
