  1. I love the wide open space and the big little feel of the dunes. You can take a 15 minute ride just seconds from camp or spend all day out and take different lines and it never gets old or boring.  I enjoy a busy weekend or two just to chat with like minded people and check out everyones set ups and camps. But there is nothing like off weekends, quiet nights, stars as fas as you can see, and smooth sand all to your self. Great post, lets here some more!!!

  2. I have only had good experiences with BLM and I've been stopped at the entrance and asked if I minded them looking in my

    enclosed trailer, and I gladly did. Nothing to hide, including weed that's illegal or a pistol in plain sight. I too have a license to carry and it stays concealed and loaded. My experience has been positive and I appreciate their time and effort to keep Dumont open and safe. My only issue ever was the CHP who pulled over my kids for driving too fast in the camps (and they were) but the real reason they stopped them was to check for DUI. I was happy to let them explain why they should slow down in the

    camp area and wasn't worried about the DUI, we don't drink until the riding is done. Sorry about your bad experience hope

    you don't let it stop you from dunning.

  3. If anyone can give some info on how bad they think the wash is going to be running please let me know. My group is heading there tomorrow morning, a little worried about taking the MH through. I guess worse case scenario we stay at little Dumont.

  4. Vegas style your first picture is of our group, that's my razor, thanks for the picture!!!!

    We had a great trip, wind was no big deal, a little dusty in camp but the dunes were good. Lots of folks, everyone seemed on their best behavior and were cautious of each other. Saw the life flight roll in, hope everyone is ok. All in all great first trip, no break downs and my new motorhome is awesome.

  5. Cali is 65 ft total length regardless of combination, then there is the total weight issue, it also require a Class A license. Having said all that I double towed a 5er and boat for a couple of years with no hassles. Risk vs Gain I suppose!

  6. Great post!! Always take the time to relearn the dunes. They can change drastically from season to season or between trips. My families first ride every trip is a nice cruise around the dunes in daylight looking for hazards to avoid. Once we feel comfortable with the lines we rip it up!

    If you go on big Holiday weekends, ride early then just chill and enjoy the sights.
