Soft sand is a traction problem, not a pulling problem, and half a mud kit is dead weight out there. Work the twelve-item list built for soft surfaces and see what is still missing from your rig.
Desert and Sand Recovery Kit — Build the Right Kit for the Right Terrain
Sand recovery has specific requirements that a standard recovery kit doesn’t cover. Build the kit before you need it.
Work through the desert and sand recovery checklist: traction boards, tyre deflation tools, sand anchors, hydration, and navigation. Each item is rated for terrain type.
Sand recovery situations have unique hazards — heat, vehicle burial depth, and lack of solid anchor points. Terrain-specific kits address each one.
Desert and dune drivers, overlanders, and anyone travelling in sandy environments.
- SAE J1881 recovery standards
