Sand in H-Break Drum

I got myself a little burried at the top of a sharp dune and struggled to get going.
I heared a terrible rubbing from the handbreak straight after and noted a slight wift of smoke off the drum but no terrible smell at all.
I stopped and slacked the adjuster all the way off and after another 2 minutes of driving all the sand must of fallen out cause the noise lessened and then stopped.
I first thought I had bent the drum but after it stopped making the rubbing sound I guessed it was just sand.
Do I still need to remove the drum and clean inside and do you guys think the seal would have kept out any sand from t-case?

Thanks
