  1. :dunno:

    This is my back yard sand spot. I always camp at the meadows. The sand is very different in texture from Dumont. You can get hurt very fast on these dunes. Avoid mid day flying across the dunes as the light can trick you and you can be airborn over a 100 ft drop. All my dune riding family has been hurt by that mistake and I spent many a night visiting them in the hospital. I broke in my 700 raptor there. Sold it there and bought a rhino. Across the road from the meadow is a trail system that is wonderful. We go from the meadow on a 2 1/2 hr ride all the way to Mt carmel for lunch. You cross the virgin river 26 times before you reach Mt. Carmel. Check with the ranger and get directions for a trail ride that will take you to historic mail drop cliff overlooking Zion Natl park. Prapere for very cool nights. Meadows is a dry camp buy you can get water and dump at the supervised campground. Absolutely no campfires on the ground. you must have a device like a cut barrel or something you can buy and bring that will keep ashes in check. I know its a pain, but it does keep the area nice for the rest of the campers. Rangers will close this overflow area if that rule is broken. Rangers otherwise are very nice. I have seen them go up and drag toys out by rope for those who ran out of gas or broke down and they do it gladly. Respect them and they will respect you. :rhino:

    Coral Pink Rocks! True, the rangers are great, true, the riding can be dangerous, but it is beautiful up there and have had some of the best rides of my entire life there.
