It was my first night drive of 2024, and we got lucky with the super nice.wrather.after all the weather alerts we've been having lately.
Started from lisali just past the canlmel farms, and warmed up by zigzagging to the south west through many small dunes. Managed to scare my passenger a few times with some nice sharp drops and some fun sidies in this section before passing by the half buried car for a close look.
Hopefully everyone marks it in their maps so that we can check it out again in daylight sometime.
From here we got the technical dunes and headed towards qudra. Lots of tight manoeuvering on hard packed sand, spotting quite a few young gazelles. We had a quick break and noticed those steps were giving quite a work out to a couple of the jeeps number plates. Hopefully those get straightened out easily.
Just before the exit the convoy got waved down to perform a rescue on a Lexus sedan that had decided it was ready for a real adventure in the desert. Keep an eye on Instagram the driver took a pic of our cars and said he would try and tag carnity. 5 minutes later we were back in our way to exit.
Thanks @Davie Chase for the great drive, @Mark B excellent work on the first support drive... And glad that @Gary F made sure no one was left behind.
Nice driving from everyone! Was an easy 52km and perfect start to the weekend. Enjoy the rest of it👋👋
Ps I was totally wrong about moonset time and didn't g get a single good photo of the moon 😅😅😅
