Hydrate before you go
Drink water before pickup and carry a reusable bottle—organizers supply bottled water, but desert heat and activity dehydrate quickly.
Bring a light layer
Temperatures drop after sunset; a windbreaker or fleece keeps you comfortable during the camp and stargazing.
Secure loose items
Sand and speed dislodge phones and hats—use zipped pockets or a small daypack during quad and dune-bash segments.
Time your photos
Arrive ready for sunset; the warm light on sand ridges is brief—keep camera settings ready for fast-changing contrast.
Closed-toe hiking or trail shoes
Protects feet on hot, soft sand and during dune walks.
Sunscreen and wide-brim hat
