    Anyone planning to be out at Dumont during this timeframe?

    Wife works weekdays and I now work weekends

    I would like to go out for a couple of nights that week,

    I'm very self sufficiant and not looking to need assistance for anything, but you never know

    Just wondering if anyone will be out there incase I have to walk to a camp for assistance or anything

     

    Thanks in advance

    Between the end of September and the beginning of October. I think we will stayed 24 hours maybe a little bit more and then, we leave for visit Flagstaff and fly over Meteor Crater. 😊

    Awesome

    You should keep this sight updated.  That is a great time of year at Dumont, still a little Hot, yet nice.

    Folks might come out to meet you folks and watch the flying 🙂

    I bought Dune Therapys from Dirt 2 Dunes for my wife, and I. We both love them. (3) magnetic quick change lenses(tinted/amber/clear) for any conditions. They fit fine over my glasses. 

     

    They fit over your glasses

    I'm going to look into these

     

    Do you know of a shop that sells them so we can go try them on?

     

    Thanks

    Man, I love watching all of the Fireworks

    No where else in the State can you fire them off without really endangering anyone

    The place is loud as it is with the engines running all night long, it's all part of the joy of Dumont

    And for those cry babies about there animals, leave them at home...  I'm sure if they don't like the fireworks, they aren't real happy with the engine noise in their ears

     

    Please, no stopping the fireworks

     

    Thanks,

    Jeep Sahara in Dumont

    in General Chat

    Posted · Edited by IrnBear

    Wow, that is a great little video.  

    I always find it amazing how people take there Jeeps and such in the sand like that.

    Some do out in Dumont during the season, late Sept to around April/May

    Most of Dumont is SxS, Sand Rails, Quads and Motorcycles

    Most with Paddle Tires

    I have seen Trucks and Jeeps etc

     

    It's not usually day trips like you see in Dubai, since here it is such a drive just to get to the Dunes

    Dubai they are in your backyard

     

    It usually is a big camping trip for the weekend or week

    Halloween Weekend (the weekend before Halloween is the Big beginning of the season weekend)

    Tons and tons of people out there, riding and having fun.  Plus Trick or Treating from camp to camp as well.

     

    You might want to look into a number of the Jeep groups in California and Vegas

    Jeep groups love to do many different runs and you will get a taste of the different kind of Jeeping in the areas

     

    As I mentioned before

    Dumont is a distance from anything, help etc

    The sand will melt you and your shoes it is so f'ing hot, its a dry heat, LOL

     

    Another Dune area to look into is Glamis

    I have never been there

    But it is in lower SoCal, San Diego area

    I don't know if their season is the same as Dumonts

     

    Again, Jeep groups might be your best bet for the type of runs you are looking for

    I am the proud new owner, 6 months ago, of a 2018 4 door Jeep JL with the 4 cyl Turbo....  We love it 🙂

    At my luck I would bury the damn thing out at Dumont 🤣

     

    Best of Luck

    Thank you very much for the info

    I grew up in Riverside and my Parents are still there

    Kind of a Nostalgia thing to use a shop in Riverside, as long as the work is good

     

    My shop in Pahrump, Doghouse Repair, has a place in Vegas he uses.  I don't know the name.  But I think they will rebuild mine for lower then the Rancho Trannys go for.  I do realize that Rancho is top notch, therefore you pay for it.

    Hey,

    There used to be an Ad on here for a VW Tranny shop in Riverside Cali

    I can't remember the name and don't see the Ad anywhere

    What was the shop?

    Where they good?

    Lost Reverse in my rail while in OR, didn't let that stop the fun though 🙂

     

    Thank you,
