Some of you guys will probably like this trip, as it's actually 3 routes (easy, medium, and papa bear 8) out of Moreb! :great:

Also, find the trip to Salamat with Yamaha Raptor, as those dunes are pretty awesome, too, and closer.
Check out the pics! 8)
Hope you find the GPS file and map useful - it's for your use and download 8)

You're more than welcome guys, it's my pleasure to share with my offroading buddies!
If you download the GPS file, you will see there are 3 routes out of Moreb: green is easy (relative to Liwa, not easy like for newbies), blue is medium, and red is Papa Bear!!! Choose the one that fits 8)

That's right! 8) but it's a tough line even for experts, bud - it's against the grain (against the sideslopes) and you need to find your own way up top!
There is an easy exit about half-way through, just in case. I'm sure that with the right people and cars you'll love that route.
The green track, although it's the easiest of the three, it's still in Liwa dunes, so it's a good run, too. It follows the sebkhas so there's less crossing of dunes. Actually, too much sebkha LOOOOL

It is the flat, hard packed area between dunes - easy, fast ground to cover but not very exciting

Thanks Richard, I thought it was something to do with camels seriously.
. That's interesting to know.
