Tyres for dusty trails with loose pebbles

Have a 2.35 High Roller super tacky up front and a 2.1 ignitor on the back, both tubeless running around 30psi.
Been fairly happy with them although they are a hard pedal!
My local trail cannock is well drained and dry as a bone with loose dust and pebbles like marbles all over, especially the DH at Stile Cop. Bike is really twichey on this surface and I was wondering if there is any tyre in the world that would grip this stuff? Desperately needs some rain to help sticky it up a bit....

I've been having good results with Panaracer Rampage Sport 2.35 at Cannock.
They get me up all the pebble and gravel covered ascents. Also great on FtD and the [new] Monkey trail.
Also great for mud, damp and wet conditions
Never done the DH section at Stile Cop through0 -
^^^^ you have to get to Stile Cop - it is a hoot. Some trails are hard as nails and would result in hospital with some of the jumps for me, but the red run is great fun - not too harsh , nice and drifty with a good few drops...0
