Nice report. The drone footage of the Jeep plowing through the silt dust was something I have not seen before.

I also highly recommend you read Tom Sheppards books for overland knowledge and planning. It specifically mentions how to plan for mileage and how much fuel to carry.

I’m not seeing a failure if everyone made it home in one piece with stories to tell! Looks like quite an adventurous trip. ?
I get the sentiment but if two pieces, then imagine how much better the stories. Luckily I have always returned home in one piece but I have had pieces missing, bruises, internal burns/bleeding, etc and those stories have ranged from hilarious to over the top. ;)
