... excellent news :) we have programmed the destination into our GPS last night and it is very close to where we have been before, so this weekend we are going to do the route to camp1 to test it.
Really looking forward to it!
Have a safe trip back to Qatar eu :)
"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind"
... has a GPS we can set the destination coordinates and then make sure to meet you half way to see if you guys need any help. One group will follow us, another group will follow another leader with a GPS too to make sure both groups end up at the same end destination. Please let us know what we can do to help. Maybe a meet between ALL people who want to go to Sealine, whether on foot or not, by middle of next week? Then we can discuss any doubts, questions and generally meet each other? What do you guys think? :)
"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind"
yes we need to have a pre trek meeting. to discuss about the route and plans for safety and fun.
i have already picked a temporary route. scenic one, but can't finalize it until they post the location of the final campsite. let's talk about it later if we've got the final list.
as of the moment, this is the names of those who are in for the trip, some will go by 4x4 and others will go on foot. alumnar is taking care of the 4x4 group.
as for those who want's to go with us on foot(trek to inland sea), we need to do a better planning. to make it safe and fun.
trek can be done with or without support. only the load of trekkers will vary. if we have the final list of those who wants to trek we can discuss things agree with a route and establish meeting points with the support group if ever there is a support.
who will volunteer for the support? support group will meet the trekkers at two meeting points along the trail, or if they want to check trekkers from time to time that would be better.
for those who are not so familiar with the 4x4 routes to inland sea and for others who wanted to go straight they can join the convoy with the rest and set up the camp.
... and the driving separate. We will need to guide the drivers - and then the more experienced ones can come back for the trekkers once we decided where we set up camp for the event. We can't afford people getting lost and at the same time driving through the desert demands a certain amount of speed to make sure we don't get stuck in the sand. The ones coming back for the trekkers can then follow the coastline. We need to consider we probably have people (like us) travelling with children who want to get to the end destination slightly faster.
As I said - everything can be arranged, we just need to make sure there are people willing to drive back for the ones who are trekking.
Go Sport has those wonderful water backpacks for trekkers - if you don't have one you might want to look into that too.
yes the shortest route is along the coast. alumnar is right there were dunes along, we will pass on top of the dunes to avoid going up and down. anyway it's not a hard route to plan.
yes, we can set up pick up points(resting points) along the route for those who can't continue or wants to refill water.there's no need to carry heavy packs anymore.
almnar you can start a new topic. jst tag us all here. our friends from the medics group were in also. no worries about first aid.lol:)
I totally agree with you :) the more the merrier!!! Looking forward to it already.
We can't do the coast route though - high cliffs will stop us. We will do the easy route there and back and if there are any people who want to they can dunebash off the camp when they want to (or do a desert trek off the camp too) :)
... but we need to check what route the 'walkers' want to take as we want to be able to help them out if needed - it is a long way!
The other thing is if somebody is familiar with a good place to set up camp for the night. We also need to get wood (hubby already started collecting from work!) and arrange whatever else is necessary closer to the time.
Should we create a topic just for this Desert Camp day/night to make sure everybody sees it as the title of this topic might keep a lot of people away from it (the non-walkers like me! LOL!)??
... we can organize it easy with pickup points for the ones who want to stop walking, no problem with that :) Hubby just said YESSSSSSSS as he is looking forward to doing that for a while now - and specially now the weather is getting fab! :)))
... Holidays will guarantee that people are off-work, and if hubby is not he will have to trust me with the 4x4 in the desert... so he better start praying!!!
Take tents, do a campfire, get First-Aid kit ready for the walkers (and somebody please volunteer for mouth-to-mouth because by the time they get to us I don't even know if that is gonna be enough...!), BBQ and evening singalong. Let's do it folks, weather is getting amazing for this kind of events :)
Timebandit, we can get you a lift, no problem! :)))
the weather is getting better now. i'm planning to do it this coming eid holidays.
it's roughly 30kms from sealine to inland sea. it will take around 5 to six hours depending on the route.
for those of you who will go with 4x4's if you want, we can met there in inland sea and spend the whole night socializing, swimming and cook some barbq's...
This could be an awesome day :) But my little Honda City may struggle a bit with the larger dunes :( Anyone got room for little old Bandit in there 4x4?
... who is on holiday in the UK at the moment, but he will be back in 2 weeks and he is such a mountaineer enthusiast, I bet when the weather is cooler he is sure up for it! Keep in touch and I will pass this info on to him :)

We can make a meting before to set all the details of this trip... and also to know each other before we go to adventure!
GPS will be a must for trekkers in order to be pickup with the supporting cars.

Is there room for one more? Don't mind trekking, though 4x4 support halfway is always nice.
yes the shortest route is along the coast. alumnar is right there were dunes along, we will pass on top of the dunes to avoid going up and down. anyway it's not a hard route to plan.

trekking?
never thought about it. In november-december has to be a possibility...
I would like to try, but its too early, I cannot do plans like that three weeks in advance.
It is possible to keep in touch and confirm one week in advance.
(I will forget, what about email or FB?)
To have a car support is a great idea, so BBQ and tents can be waiting in inland sea for the ppl, instead of carrying all the weight.

Good night!!!
for my expence .. lol :) drinks food etc etc :P
... pay for what???
Alumnar wallah ana miskeen u have to pay for me :P
I totally agree with you :) the more the merrier!!! Looking forward to it already.
We can't do the coast route though - high cliffs will stop us. We will do the easy route there and back and if there are any people who want to they can dunebash off the camp when they want to (or do a desert trek off the camp too) :)
Topis seems fine..self explainatory to what we plan on doing.
Just that we need to advertise our plan with other QLM's..
More the merrier...
... but we need to check what route the 'walkers' want to take as we want to be able to help them out if needed - it is a long way!
The other thing is if somebody is familiar with a good place to set up camp for the night. We also need to get wood (hubby already started collecting from work!) and arrange whatever else is necessary closer to the time.

30 Km would mean about 8hrs of walking not too good/exciting for those unfit guys like me :(.....I think 5 to 10km would be Ideal....
Or may be we could orgainse the guys in the car to be there half way just in case someone wants to give up walking...lol
... Holidays will guarantee that people are off-work, and if hubby is not he will have to trust me with the 4x4 in the desert... so he better start praying!!!
how about we fix the date on eid al-adha. it's holiday, so have plenty of time.

Yay!!! Bandits got a ride...
... you can drive perfectstrangers' car because he won't walk back once he did it one-way! LOL! ;)
Let's make it a day and night to remember!
Take tents, do a campfire, get First-Aid kit ready for the walkers (and somebody please volunteer for mouth-to-mouth because by the time they get to us I don't even know if that is gonna be enough...!), BBQ and evening singalong. Let's do it folks, weather is getting amazing for this kind of events :)
Timebandit, we can get you a lift, no problem! :)))
rooms never an issue... U can drive my ride( 2 door Nissan patrol) It fun, trust me.....
Coz i prefer walking...
the weather is getting better now. i'm planning to do it this coming eid holidays.
it's roughly 30kms from sealine to inland sea. it will take around 5 to six hours depending on the route.
for those of you who will go with 4x4's if you want, we can met there in inland sea and spend the whole night socializing, swimming and cook some barbq's...
This could be an awesome day :) But my little Honda City may struggle a bit with the larger dunes :( Anyone got room for little old Bandit in there 4x4?
count me Innnn..
Heee Alumnar if will be in a Friday we are in...
lol, you going to walk from Sealine to Inland sea ??? Make sure all those quadbike and landcruisers see you walking in the sand.
4X4 count me in
[img_assist|nid=50852|title=hmm|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=|height=0]
Hike? I am shit scared ....but willing to give it a try....lol timebandid.
When is it and how long would the trek be?
4x4 is just too easy...like another QL outing...
We have the route programmed on our GPS so I think we should soon organize a desert meet-up! Go dune bashing, picnic and swimming... whatcha think? :)
Alumnar I'm coming with you
...setting off by foot! But I am more then happy to be on the OTHER side with refreshments (after having driven to the final destination)!!!
lol @ timebandit .. mountain trekking is nice... but i dunno about desert trekking though.
-=The desire to do what you shouldn'T is the very desire that defines Humanity=-
Hummm... 4x4 well up for it. But your photo scares me because I think you literally mean trek. And I would die.
... who is on holiday in the UK at the moment, but he will be back in 2 weeks and he is such a mountaineer enthusiast, I bet when the weather is cooler he is sure up for it! Keep in touch and I will pass this info on to him :)
ah! a mountaineer! :P
nice to know someone here share the same hobby!
-=The desire to do what you shouldn'T is the very desire that defines Humanity=-
4x4 - count me in for a swim, picnic and socializing...as for walking it... hmmmmmm I'll give it a miss! ;)
Hike or 4x4?
