No matter what the consistency always keep your vehicle moving The vehicle’s momentum will contribute greatly to its ability to get through the sand Turning your steering wheel quickly to the right and left can also increase tire traction
also deflating to around 10-15 pounds of pressure will help your tires find the traction they need to negotiate sandy obstacles

Yeah that was the first place I went too. It's awesome out there, especially with the horses and everything at Corolla. First time I drove on the beach I was with my buddy I'd met at school who lives down there. He's got a 2001? F150. He kept talking about how if I tried, I could get stuck with no problem, so I accepted his challenge. First I put it in 4 hi and floored it from a dead stop, it sank a few inches then took off, same thing in 4 lo, so I power braked it in 2wd. He thought I was stuck when my axle tube hit the sand. I then put it in 4 and backed right out. I bet if I was locked I'd gotten stuck by power braking it, guess we'll find out in a couple years haha
