In that world it would be more like 100 m a year. if you dig in for 3 days, you may find yourself a whole 1 m closer to the dune peak. And that might be several meters of sand up. Im not saying it is impossible, but definitely should account for. If storm time is known, you could dig yourself in a way that will almost uncover you by the end of the storm, that would be cool. | |
