nothing like that at all, Desert in UAE, KSA and Qatar is the real deal, what you have in Kuwait is nice too, if you like sand that is.

Yes I guessed so, I didnt want to sound rude just asked. Yes Qatar has some nice places, Saudi Oum Ash-shar, Soumaan etc..

Looks beautiful! Is it hard to get through? I only went through sand once, on a beach in Mexico, and I was constantly afraid of getting stuck. A/T tires and 4wd weren't quite enough it seemed.

On the beach its harder, if you get stuck you need low range and diff lock.

it wasn't hard at all, but it depends on your equipment, an X5 that was with us today couldn't make it past the first sand pit, same can be said about a tahoe.

Glad you liked the pictures.

Yeah the Avalanche is very heavy, I'm sure those smaller 4x4s didn't sink nearly as much. Gorgeous little spot! Can't wait to get back out to the desert again.
