Dear Desert Drivers, 

Some additional details to Saturday morning.

Arriving at the meeting point, you will see a gate. Approach the gate slowly, and it will open by itself. Last week, the right part was blocked half open, but the left part was operating properly.

If there is still water remaining before the gate, you can go around driving 50 m more on the road and going around, coming back to the gate along the fence.

Be sure your car is in the best condition to drive with the heat, and remove unnecessary items from the back seats and the trunk areas.

I will indicate tomorrow by the end of the afternoon the convoy order and the radio frequency. If you have not done it yet, please program in advance the 10 Carnity frequency.
