  3. It's that time of year again. Time to give back to the place we all love. Friends of El Mirage and the Barstow BLM invite you to the 15th Annual Dumont Dunes Cleanup March 18th, 2017. Round up your dune buddies and make a weekend out of it. Come lend a hand and help keep Dumont nice and clean, the way we all like it. Cleanup will begin at 8:00 AM and there will be a BLM/ Sub-group meeting open to the public. Lunch will be provided for all cleanup volunteers and will get a free entrance to Dumont Dunes that weekend. You must show your wristband upon exiting the dunes. Where: Dumont Dunes Visitor Center When: March 18, 2017. Check in at 8:00 AM Forum Discuission

  6. The forecast of rain has raised some concerns for duners this year. Is it going to rain? Yes. Will the river crossing be ok to cross? Probably but we'll just have to wait and see. Usually it's fine unless it pours hard for a full day or more. Are the Jeep races still on? Yes. With a 90%-100% chance of rain on Friday and Saturday, there is no doubt that Dumont will see some rain. How much exactly? We just don't know until it starts to come down. They say 1/2 inch on Friday and 1/4 inch on Saturday, but the weather at Dumont sometimes has a mind of it's own. There have been many times when the forecast of rain has turned out to be sporadic sprinkles or passing showers. If you are on the fence about going this weekend, just go. Some of my best memories of Dumont have been in the rain or crappy weather. Have a little sense of adventure and go have some fun with your friends. You never know what you'll get into out there. Weekend Race Schedule Just because it's going to rain, its not stopping the LV Jeep Club from hosting their 45 Annual hill climbs and drag races. The LV Jeep Club has confirmed their races are a rain or shine event. So bring your umbrellas and EZ-UPs. Don't sit in the motorhome all day. Head over to the drag races and hill climbs on Saturday and Sunday. Friday: Registration & Tech 2pm-7pm, no races Saturday: Hill Climbs | Reg & Tech 7AM- 8:30am, racing starts at 9:30am Sunday: Drag Races | Reg & Tech 7AM- 8:30am, racing starts at 9:30am All times are subject to change Tips for Duning in the Rain Increase tire pressure. Wet sand means more traction. Don't be lugged down by wet sand. Increase your pressure to 15-25 psi for better performance and less load on your equipment. Bring a rain jacket or wind breaker. Just because it's wet out, doesn't mean you have to be. Careful in the corners! Those ruts can easily put you on your lid. Your machine won't slide as well when the sand is wet so act like you are driving on concrete. Don't Forget! tarps to cover your seats and firewood an EZ UP or canopy. Just because it will be raining doesn't mean you have to be cooped up inside card games or movies to watch booze and snacks! if you are stuck in the RV all day, you will need more of both!

  8. The short answer is no, not at Dumont. Try Craigslist or a local company.
