Dear all participants, there is a small change in plan. We are not going to attempt Dome Bowl area because this whole area is fenced and the only opening to enter here is marked by concern authorities as special reserves and restricted to enter. We will drive our first half and second half at Naqrah area only and all other details will remain same. (Changes made in drive post) Entry to Dome Bowl Area is Restricted

Thank you @Gaurav second lead, @NOOR OMAR third position, @EmVarlet fourth position, @skumar83 second sweep and @Rahimdad at sweep for joining the drive and for all your support. We all met on time and drove like Daker Rally style around 20 to 30kms dirt track to the deflating point. After deflating and safety breifing we started exploring the dunes. Just after 15 to 30miniutes of drive we had a situation in noor's jeep. The right front axel u joint slipped out from its position and we had to find a safe exit which was a bit challenging for me because i wanted to stay in flat track as much as possible and we did it safely and exited without any issue. And @NOOR OMARdecided to go back home and we all contineued our drive. We almost covered all the marked area and played climbing dunes, side sloping and ridge crossing. Time did not permit us to explore more and me got stuck which took 45mins to 1hour to recover from that sticky spot. Once recovered we had very little time to play and sun completely disspeared and we decided to exit. We found a nice plain land after exiting and relaxed there for 2hours counting stars, chit chat, space talk with our little knowledge and had our snaks and left home again with dakar rally style to the tarmac. We will definately post this area again for a hole day drive. Once again thank you all for joining this drive.
