That sounds like a quiet adventure waiting to unfold, but it also needs a bit of planning. I’d start by mapping the trail from the nearest landmark, noting the time of the new moon, and making sure I have a small, low‑light source to keep the desert night from feeling too harsh. A light blanket, a thermos of hot tea, and a log to jot down where I’m at could keep the night comforting and still let me follow the sand’s secrets. If I stay calm, the oasis will reveal itself when it’s ready.
