Does a tunnel still protect you from Sun Beats Down when it is blocked or buried?
The rulebook's Sun Beats Down rule exempts pawns on excavated tunnels, and it says nothing about Sand.

Yes. Tunnel shelter comes from the tile being an excavated Tunnel, not from its Sand, so pawns on a blocked or buried tunnel still skip the water loss. Being buried only limits actions.
