Great pics with three quality dune pics of the month candidates for January.

Maybe change the name to "Dune pic of the last three weeks of December"?

We arrived on Saturday the 17th and stayed through Tuesday the 20th. We really enjoyed taking the kids on a ride to the gold mines and tore up a lot of sand vintage three wheeler style. Had a great time with friends and family with perfect weather and sparse crowds. Can't wait until New Years...hopefully the weather will be just as nice.

Very sad indeed. Thoughts and prayers to all involved and affected by this tragedy.

Arrived this past Saturday to beautiful weather, no drug sniffing dogs or LEO checkpoints of any kind. The helicopter took someone out late Saturday afternoon but no details on what happened.The wind blew lightly most of the day Sunday and cleaned the dunes up nicely so we tore them up all day yesterday. The weather was even nicer today (Monday) so we tore the dunes up some more for the crowds arriving later this week. Looking forward to another nice day tomorrow.

I agree that the majority of us (rigs) are probably overweight. Not sure about other states but triple towing behind a 5th wheel is legal in CA as long as the total length of all vehicles doesn't exceed 65'. But you might need a Class A license. And, although I haven't done it myself, one of these days I plan on adding a slide in receiver/cargo carrier to the back of my 5th wheel for fire wood, gas cans etc. and maybe even one of the kid's quads. Check out RV.net in the toy hauler category as others have done this mod successfully.

We'll be there this Saturday through next Wednesday and home by Thanksgiving to miss the crowds.

Try Craigslist, I used to see rental toy haulers on there all the time.

We'll be there next Saturday 11/17 through Wednesday 11/21. Can't wait!

Great pics. Can't wait for our first trip of the season 11/17-21.

Vet's weekend was free at Dumont two years ago but I only found out after purchasing a pass. BLM took care of me though and hooked me up with a free pass for New Years weekend.
