This looks like a great trip. Did you have much trouble avoiding soft sand?

 

[Glenn W]

I didn't avoid the sand, just kept a reasonable speed through the softer sections. The AWD and all-terrain tires worked quite well for these scenarios. Ground clearance was the real limiting factor. I turned back a couple of times when the rocks got too big or the trail too rutted.
