Dear “ Pajero bowl “ team @Ranjan Das @Imteeaz @MMansoor @Zed We all definitely now had the experience of it ( for me it’s first time in Al wagan as well as in PB 😅 ) . Please have a look at this clip and the purpose is to think about the geometry of the bowl and best exit point with least centripetal force which tends to throw you off the ridge .

That looked slightly tense situation. How to tackle ? first : no helping cars should stop up unattended , even with hand brake up to max and on P ; the gravity momentum is big and risk of the unattended any car to roll is probable . Instead we climbed on foot with shovels to help it out. second the bogged y62 no driver nor passenger allowed to move out and stay calm with reassurance Third : sand wall clearance from the rear right only leaving the remaining sand as a fulcrum where about the rotate and slide in reverse in same time gently . Plan A : with instructions step by step came down safely with God Grace 🙏 in case didn’t work . Plan B : connect all our ropes together ( this is the reason I asked in the intro the more ropes you have the better 😄) . To the rare recovery point . And one stabilising rope from above ( this would have been real challenge to get to the other side and find the best position 😅) . Then with synchronised action should come . -

Trip Report When I had set the limitation for this drive I wasn’t wrong at all. And today my friends it was just worth every km we drove to reach the meeting point which was about 230 to 250km from our homes. leaving ahead of time so early thinking about how our day is going to be. It turned out a super amazing day with super brave and like minded off-roaders . By the time I reached Al Wagan it was already sun rise what a refreshing breeze after a rainy night I took a quick scout to the entry to the sand before the arrival of the team which they were punctual on time. a quick brief about our trip plan and a reminder to the safety points that we always repeat in any drive and at any level .Do Not Fight the Nature , just let it flow and we did safely all of us. it’s not possible to cover Al wagan in one or in 10 days . However our plan was of three main locations. we started with the star fish dunes at this area. So to get the feel we Broke to it gradually to find ourself in front of the giant fish. We spent quite a time negotiating climbing sliding crossing back and forth. It seems we got to the mood of the nature of these dunes. Surprisingly The sand was super soft despite the heavy wet night the day before ! leaving this area back to the track to get to the giant Squid 🦑 the octopus dune which was even more demanding and we managed to escape the octagonal limbs but this time not to the track but across the technical/flat/ technical straight away to the last epic and famous pagero bowl . The Pajero Bowl that was the most challenging part to tackle . Its huge uneven vagitated solid base crater precluded any chance to use it for an infinity like fashion climb like in the death bowl of Sweihan. We had a quick chat and plan . I first climbed and managed three quarter a circle to exit the best thought point. I was pretty fast and when I let the momentum to do the rest it was stronger and my left rare slipped . Now there is no way to go back for another round . I knew what I had to do and luckily I managed to control an iminant double fishtail and near misshapen !😅 once steady I grabbed the radio and reassured my friends that all is ok and not to start till I guide them one by one . All has to come higher than my line even a foot is enough so they can ride the ridge longer .All did it like in the awesome videos what @Zedshared earlier 🙏👍. What a great feeling of accomplishment and relief in the same time . here down are some what I could get from above After a break we headed toward the exit and on our way as usual I managed to get a wedged stuck where with some shovelling thanks also to Zed’s sand tracks which worked to catch a traction and helped me to get away 🙏. @Ranjan Das perfect second lead and pleasure to see you with your awesome Rubicon after a long time . @Imteeaz bro you drove like a pro today. And the Pajero bowl is a testament well done . @MMansoor honestly I had little doubt at the beginning not of your skills but the heavy beast . But you made her yours now after this trip I bet on it by 10 bucks 🤣. Excellent drive . @Zed thanks for the amazing sweep , control and help . Man your voice freaked me out more than the actual moment when I crossed the Pajero bowl 🤣, really pleasure having you in any drive bro 🫡 till we meet again take care and drive safe cheers Seidam
