Interested in the 2 headsets only and live in the SW side of Vegas. If still available, pls send me a PM. Thanx

It was 116 F at the peak but had good weather from 6 pm to 11 am. Night time cooled off a lot with nice breezes/wind.

I wish I had stocked up on fireworks but only had a mixed bag of little stuff with me for this trip. Funny thing that they chose to set up camp within 10 feet of a stinky bathroom. Must smell like home (TJ) for them. My buggy really needed paddles for Dumont and it was my first time out with this new build. So they are on my wish list -- but "a must" before my next sand trip. BTW: The little sand car flying up the dune is a 1/5 scale RC car: HPI Baja 5B. Pismo was actually Plan A but we did not want to watch our toys rust and there is no comparison to the quality and quantity of duning at Dumont vs. Pismo.

I went to Dumont this 4th and stayed from Thursday afternoon until Sunday morning. There was no one else there until Friday night and finally one group arrived and had the nerve to raise their Mexican flag on the 4th weekend. Even though we were a quarter mile apart, all their kids -- mostly without helmets and doubled-up on quads, would ride to our camp and then turn back. The temps from 6 pm to 11 am were nice but the peak hours were brutal without AC. Using our large fan with generator made it just seem like hot air blowing in your face. Drinking water, Gatorade and beer helped pass the 7 hours of heat each day. We dunked our tshirts in the cooler water and wore our wet shirts which cooled out body temps drastically.
