Changing a tire on soft sand is difficult due to the unstable ground. To prevent getting stuck or having the jack sink, you should use a firm base like a piece of plywood, use a low gear, drive slowly, and avoid sudden movements. Additionally, consider lowering your tire pressure to help the tires “float” better on the sand before you even need to change a tire. Before you change a tire Lower tire pressure: Before entering the sand, lower your tire pressure to about 18-25 PSI for better f...

Desert plants like cacti, agave, and yucca have specialized adaptations to survive harsh, dry conditions, storing water in their thick stems or leaves and often having spines instead of broad leaves to prevent water loss. Other desert plants, such as mesquite and creosote bush, survive by developing extensive root systems to reach deep water sources or are drought avoiders that quickly complete their life cycle after rainfall.

Sossusvlei (sometimes written Sossus Vlei) is a salt and clay pan[1] surrounded by high red dunes, located in the southern part of the Namib Desert, in the Namib-Naukluft National Park of Namibia. The name "Sossusvlei" is often used in an extended meaning to refer to the surrounding area (including other neighbouring vleis such as Deadvlei and other high dunes). These landmarks are some of the major visitor attractions of Namibia.[2]
The name "Sossusvlei" is of mixed origin and roughly ...

Before You Drive
Check the conditions: Be aware of tide times to avoid being stranded.
Lower tire pressure: Reduce tire pressure to increase the tire's footprint, which provides better traction and flotation in the sand.
Turn off electronics: Disable traction control and stability control, as they will interfere with your vehicle's ability to maintain momentum in sand.
Select a low gear: Engage a low-range (4WD) if your vehicle has one and select a low gear to give the...

Jordan holds numerous treasuries, hidden off the beaten tracks. One of them is located near the Saudi borderline, around al-Omari checkpoint ( al Hadithah in the Saudi side). This jewel is called the wadi dahek, and it is surprisingly mostly unknown, even for the Jordans themselves.
This wadi totally constrats with its surroudings. The wadi itself is white with limestone and chalk, where as the desert around is pitch black, with numerous basaltic dark stones spreaded all over. And in a...

ADVANCED DESERT DRIVING TIPS
Smart driving in soft sand starts here. Forget the basics—these are the real moves:
Turn wide, not sharp. Keeps you from digging in.
Drive like it’s ice. Smooth throttle, gentle steering.
Momentum matters more than speed. Stay consistent.
Avoid old ruts. They’re often soft traps, not shortcuts.
Pack light. Every kilo counts when you’re floating on sand.
