oh ok, it sounded like you might have been left for dead!
-
I'm still wondering why you were left behind. That wasn't cool. As a general rule, if someone in front of you breaks, you stop and help. Same goes for if you can't see anyone behind you either. Had I known earlier that you broke, Dan, we would have all stopped and helped you out. Steve mentioned to me at the north pole that you busted a heim and I was very confused. Why were we were all at the north pole and you were still back in the dunes broke down? I apologize for how that went down. I could only see 3-4 cars back.

Love the shots, Neal! Especially Alper's new logo. Thanks for coming out. Thanks for joining us! You're welcome.

Thursday we got some rain out there and the sand was a bit damp all weekend, but by Sunday the sand dried out pretty good. Other than all our buggy ruts, the dunes were awesome! Still a few big holes and witches eyes. i know I found one! 😥 -
Another year has passed and it's time to say goodbye to 2018. New Years Eve is on Monday night this year so make it a long weekend and ring in the new year in the sand at Dumont Dunes. Many people choose to spend the weekend out there, however it's not quite as busy as weekends like Halloween, Thanksgiving or President's Day. No matter how busy it is, always stay alert of other duners and never drink and dune. Always wear your safety equipment and come home in one piece. A couple things to remember for New Years Weekend holiday passes are required Don't get caught with fireworks. You will be ticketed and they will be confiscated. If you still do light off fireworks, at least clean up the debris when done. Keep dogs on leashes. Fireworks often scare them away and they go missing. New Year's weekend is one of the coldest weekends out there so stock up on firewood and propane. Government Shutdown: Dumont Dunes will remain open during the government shutdown; however, the restrooms will not be cleaned. Additionally, BLM Law Enforcement Rangers will be working during the shutdown for public safety. There will be no medical or fire personnel on site. Use 911 for emergencies. New Years at Dumont is a great party and there's no better place to be when the ball drops. Have a fun and safe weekend if you are headed out! -
I had to reduce the size so hopefully it's still large enough for you to zoom in on everyone, but here is the group photo we took on Saturday. Thanks again @FE135 ! 🤟

Sorry for your loss, Heather.

ok two pics it is. Vote!

That's crazy. It's like it got wrapped around the axle. Makes no sense. Great shots, Lee!
-
Yeah I have no idea how they go from a very specific completion date to nothing happening and a very loose completion "date" with a 2 month window (April/May). This is what we saw on Sunday from Memorial hill. Just a road going up the mountain which has been done for over a month. No tower though.

That's his brake line. I don't think we ever figured out why it broke.
-
Sunday the carnage continued when Rod's daughter found a nice place to park. oops! We all got together and managed to get it out of there and safely back to camp. Glad nobody was hurt! Then we headed up to @sanddunesaddict's memorial and had a mimosa toast to him.

I know the bullhorn definitely helped, but I mean STILL! 😆 In past years some people never wake up and get moving.
-
Tacos and UFC Some pics from Melissa...
-
Saturday morning run to the north pole, then the buggy weigh-in, then group photo and dune run.
-
Saturday morning all the cars showed up to cars and coffee even if they had to be towed. 😆 I still can't believe we got everyone so organized to show up. haha
-
Friday night fun. Burgers, fire, then flip cup hilarity.
-
Then on our afternoon run on Friday, right when I was having so much fun and getting into a groove, I drove my car right into a ole big hole. The pics do no justice, but you could park a small buggy in that hole/ witch's eye that we hit. I broke a lower heim and folded the left tie rod back. I was pretty bummed and thought my weekend was ruined, but thankfully everyone in camp came together, had the parts I needed, and we got it back together. I can't thank you guys enough!

We rolled in Thursday night and just left the car in the trailer. Didn't even unload. We just hung out around Theron's fire until it was a little too cold and then went into @bstecki's trailer and played Cards Against Humanity. Friday was gorgeous weather. Sand was a bit damp but fun! We had a good size group for it only being Friday. VID_20181207_095055954.mp4

A big thanks again to everyone who came out for the 6th Annual Buggy Roundup. This trip gets better and better every year and because of you guys. You really make it what it is. It's great getting together with everybody and meeting some new friends. Between the camp fun with flipcup, card games, crazy smudge pots, buggy weigh-ins, campfire shenanigans, UFC, tacos, cars & coffee, and of course the many dune runs where we had a train of buggies that stretched two miles long from camp to the north pole....what an epic weekend! We counted over 50 buggies when we did sandcars and coffee on Saturday morning! By the way, I can't believe we actually pulled that off. That turned out great and we'll have to do that again next year. @bp-guy and John, @dirtflickarooster, got some aerial shots and those shots turned out awesome. The two below are from John. Much more to come. Post up your pics and highlights from the weekend.

Barely any rain in Vegas. A few guys are out there already but I don't think they've been in the dunes yet. Weather sounds like Vegas weather though, overcast and pretty nice out.

@JVZ and @Dent boy may be there before us this afternoon. We'll be in early evening.
