There are two Sand Barges that make the desert crossing from Hvaral and Muspar'i. These barges are pulled across the sands by the Yeehar beast of burden. Unlike the barges that cross rivers in other places where you can watch the barges pass each other, you will never see the other sand barge when crossing.

Without the sand barges, the only way left that would make getting to Muspar'i possible is the Moon Mage spell Moongate. Being on either sand barge for bonus purposes, you are in a neutral area.

A word of caution on the barges. If there is a sandstorm blowing in the desert, the barges do not offer any protection from the blowing sand and wind. It is extreamly unlikely this will change. Take heart though, sandstorms are a very rare occurance and at the time that this information was originally posted, only one (1) sandstorm occurance is confirmed on record.

"The Desert Wind"

The Desert Wind barge is made up of a wooden flatboat mounted atop steel rails. An elevated platform at the front of the craft is used by the team of Sand Elves that sail it through the desert ocean by controlling the team of massive yeehars that pull it. The barge itself is full of coils of rope, wooden crates and barrels, and bulging sackcloth.
Obvious paths: none.
