But as soon as we passed onto the sand, all worry was forgotten. As Lawrence wrote, "Our little caravan fell quiet, afraid and ashamed to flaunt its smallness in the presence of the stupendous hills." Well said, old chap.
Nappanerica -The largest red sand dune in the world (40 meters high), affectionately known as "Big Red" located just outside Birdsville on the edge of the Simpson Desert. The dunes run from north to south, and are the world’s longest parallel sand dunes.If you're travelling across the desert from west to east it's the last of approx 1,113 dunes to cross. A 4wd enthusiasts paradise.
Chasing the Bessemer usually ain't that hard if one step's on it a bit but I wouldn't recommend chasing in these weather conditions. After sliding thru a stop sign sideways & getting stuck behind people driving more sensible than me, this shot was had at Pennside with about 20 seconds to spare.
This is how you break in a new truck. Within a week of purchase I was out having some 4 WD fun near Benson, Arizona.

This is my new car, a Nissan R51 Pathfinder Ti. I can now drive onto all the beaches with 4WD access, so I can get my surfboard that little bit closer to the water...
Im busy gearing up now... I want to be able to set up on a beach with a shelter, chairs and table, BBQ and of course, a fridge to keep the beer cold! Im about half way there now...

You can save a couple of miles of backpacking on sand if you drive to the 4WD trailhead. I have an AWD car, but the park said they would not recommend that.
When I got back to my car, it was surrounded by AWD Subarus with Colorado plates, so apparently the locals agree with the NPS recommendation.
We took Murphy to Algonquin Park last weekend,,,,After a drive up in a snow storm the next day was beautiful with all the fresh snow...as you can see he loved it!

Forty miles of bad road...
Zen Koan: “Muddy Road” Parable:
Tanzan and Ekido were once traveling together down a muddy road. A heavy rain was still falling.
Coming around a bend, they met a lovely girl in a silk kimono and sash, unable to cross the intersection.
“Come on, girl” said Tanzan at once. Lifting her in his arms, he carried her over the mud.
Ekido did not speak again until that night when they reached a lodging temple. Then he no longer could restrain himself. “We monks don’t go near females,” he told Tanzan, “especially not young and lovely ones. It is dangerous. Why did you do that?”
“I left the girl there,” said Tanzan. “Are you still carrying her?”
