Here are some new pics flying South to North this time. It was disappointing that I didn't see a single worker, tractor, any sign of clean up or repairs being made between Baker and Dumont. Hwy 127 is not going to open up any time soon. It's been almost 2 weeks since the rain hit and no work has started.

I’m planning to fly it again next week. I’ll get better shots of Little D camping area.

Lake Bed 2 miles North of Baker, Hwy 127 runs around the water top of the pic:

Some aerial shots. Hwy 127 and Dumont Entrance:

I drove by today. Saw road work ahead signs down the dirt road from the highway. Looked like they were working near the water crossing. Didn’t have time to drive the road to see more.

I’ve never heard someone say they didn’t go to Dumont because of the road. I don’t think paving will bring any meaningful negatives. It’s not like Dumont is close to a highly populated area where people will just flock to Dumont because the road is paved. Way too many positives for our vehicles and trailers longevity and reliability. I’m excited about it!

I’m 70% sure that I’m in

Pahrump has several trailer storage options. Not sure where you’d be coming from if that is convenient.

It was more crowded than I’ve ever seen. About 30 SxS’s for every 1 sand rail. If you go to D to socialize, it was a good weekend. If you go to dune, forget it. Dunes were too crowded to go fast. Comp Hill at night was kind of worthless... no one races anymore. It was just a social gathering. Off weekends or less attended holidays are preferred.

Yes, I can report that I am self-isolating in Dumont now.

That was me in the plane. I was on my my home from Salt Lake and wanted to check out what I was missing. Looked like a great time! Hope to make it again next year.

My group got here last night. Camped by bathroom 3. Should be be a good trip with few people here and great weather.

Awesome pics!
