  1. And for the first-aiders in the club: Wilderness First Aid Basics | Outside Learn (outsideonline.com)
  2. Gaia GPS is since a couple of years now a part of Outside Group. I recently found out that for Premium members, you can upgrade to the Outside+ membership free of cost during the first year, and that you will automatically get access to lots of training tutorials. NOTE: Renewal will be at 59,99USD per year instead of the regular 39.9 USD per year (Premium subscription). I was able to click on "upgrade to Outside+" and it showed "0 USD", after confirming my credit card details i got immediate access to the entire Outside+ platform with below tutorials and courses: Mapping Archives | Outside Learn (outsideonline.com) For anyone trying to get more out of his Gaia GPS functionalities i would highly recommend it.
  3. DRIVE REPORT As you might know by now, i like exploring new areas, and although i had done the first part of this drive already twice, the other parts were unknown terrain and it felt great to get a super capable convoy through it unscathed. @Jessica Lambert, now equipped with the best AT tyres, cool rims, and a great co-pilot, was superb and pop-out free this time Great driving Jessica ! keep it up ! @Salim Akhtar as usually surprising everyone with his skills and how he masters the Pajero, just like @GauravSoni you are one of the ambassadors of how capable a Pajero is in the right hands ! @Mahmoud Taha and @Ashutosh Garg were our silver bullets today, and the RC car Mahmout brought was doing all the things we are not allowed to do with real cars 🤣 @Amr Aydin you are the iceman of each and every convoy. Warmhearted but super skillful and never a foot wrong in that beautiful Jeep. @munkybizness the smooth approaches you take with the Patrol are a bliss to look at. Great to see a fellow camper, with @Looperand @GauravSoni also camping the night before. Next time i'd love to join you guys. Last but not least: @Asif Hussain who had a last-minute opening in the fence and joined us on our adventure. Great seeing you again and each drive becomes memorable with you in it ! The plan for next time is to reach Fayah. If not, then we will exit earlier and plan it for another time 😁 As is mentioned, drive stats mean little to me, the camaraderie, atmosphere, and laughs mean so much more. See you all in the sand soon ! Link to the Relive video: https://www.relive.cc/view/vMq5jeBXEQv

  6. Very much deserved @Davie Chase ! From the very start you impressed all of us with your mature, calm, and helpful approach and professionalism. I am glad to have seen you growing in this sport and look forward to supporting you on your future leads !
  7. That's actually a great idea @munkybizness. Last time some of the guys including Kailas and GauravSoni camped nearby the meeting point around here: https://goo.gl/maps/E2qk5uCEPngPjZgC9 I might camp too as it's indeed a bit of drive to get there, but a perfect excuse to get the tent out from the storage. Good morning Carnitenders ! Attendees Amr Aydin @Amr Aydin Mahmoud Taha @Mahmoud Taha Salim Akhtar @Salim Akhtar Warren Flay @Warren Flay Manage Frederic @Frederic Looper @Looper munkybizness @munkybizness Waitlisted Attendees Joseph Raju @Joseph Raju Ashutosh Garg @Ashutosh Garg Jessica Lambert @Jessica Lambert Jona @Jona Great to see you all signing up for this drive ! We will be transitioning from reddish sand to almost powder white "Qudra" sand as we make our way from the East to West. This area is usually spotless and very scenic, but nevertheless the pace will be brisk As a small spoiler, i have put some waypoints here below to identify the areas that we will be visiting: Area 1: https://goo.gl/maps/WGn4N4PHek9q9LBZ8 Area 2: https://goo.gl/maps/4cAymKmaVvErZ9fe6 Area 3: https://goo.gl/maps/crLSRU45Q6NQUZ7s7 Area 4: https://goo.gl/maps/mJWAY9wyDKqDks9A8
