  1. Congratulations @Aser the real shovel duties start now 😜
  2. Another LIWA Adventure ! @Giacomo@DP1011@Ashutosh Garg@Glenn W@Alexanderrr@Imran Asghar@Srikumar@AlexM and camp comrades @Looper and @GauravSoni I was blessed with an amazing group of extremely capable drivers and who happened to be genuine nice guys to spend a weekend with ! We took off from Khanoor around 08:30 and got warmed up in the first technical dunes close to the starting point. The weather went from moderate to quite hot throughout the day, to the point we had to drive with AC on. As the convoy was short and super capable, we ventured deeper into the famous LIWA dunes, which contained deep soft patches and unpredictable bowls. Thanks to brilliant team work we got out of it harmless and mostly with some shovel work. The last hour I gladly handed over the lead to @DP1011 who was able to stretch his legs and took us through some amazing climbs ! On our way to the camp point Looper had shared with us, we got into a little bit of a pickle when @Srikumarhis XJ decided to take some rest in a nice bowl. In an awkward pose where shoveling became useless, we decided to use the winch to pull him a little backwards so he was pulled out of the ditch. After that he was able to reverse and engage the jet engine boosters to drive straight out. All’s well that ends well and thanks to everyone who helped out to create a water dam and Kabir that became our logistics operator 😉. We had a windy evening at the camp fire with plenty of good stories, dancing, and bonfire. These evenings under the stars are unforgettable and the biggest reason I like these adventures ! The next morning we headed out to Moreeb and had our fill climbing (boys will be boys) 🤣. I hope you all enjoyed as much as I did and hope to see more of you next season with perhaps a second convoy. See you soon in the sands again !
