Well, sometimes it could take all day, but in this case, maybe not. Each potential boondocking site that I have picked out on Google Earth involves just one "dry stream" crossing of about 50 feet (the width of a forest road).
If there were more sand crossings than that, I removed the site from my list of possible sites!
So this is about a very limited problem. I certainly will get out and stomp on the sand before driving over it, except that I have no frame of reference -- how soft is too soft?
I am guessing that I could get stuck in a little sand patch, just like a bigger one -- ten feet away from solid ground is nine feet too far! ;)
So that is my question -- is there a way to evaluate sand by stomping on it, kicking it, or whatever??
