The sun is a low coin over the horizon as the 4x4 slips off the blacktop and into a field of rolling red sand. Wind chisels the dunes into sharp ridges; each crest throws light and shadow like a stage for the evening ahead. You arrive to an open camp where the air cools, embers glow, and the desert seems to watch.
