    Cayenne Desert Camp

    Porsche organized a Desert Camp. Invitees were given taken through an obstacle session with an instructor to demonstrate the capabilities of the Cayenne. This was followed by a dune bashing session. This is a serious off-road performer (although its so expensive that most owners like me wouldnt dare take their own Cayenne in the desert). For the event, Porsche provided their own vehicles.

    Here are a couple of pics & more to follow.

    A nervous driver let go off the gas as he was reaching the top of the obstacle (which most first-time off-roaders do), leading to his vehicle being stuck from underneath (with all four wheels spinning freely). He had to be pulled out.

    Re: Cayenne Desert Camp

    This is my weekend desert ride (the white wrangler). This picture is taken on top of a dune. As you can see in the background, we are quite high above ground level. According to my Garmin gps, the height level 0.8 mile above ground level.

    Re: Cayenne Desert Camp

    It was my best weekend. We got some intermittent rain while in the desert. We kept going deeper & deeper relying on our Garmin to bring us back to the highway. The rain made the sand harder. We ended up going places we otherwise didnt think were possible.
