HEG Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 IM THINKING ABOUT TAKING A TRIP TO MEET FAMILY 1/2 WAY. HOW IS THE CAMPING, RIDING ECT.IS IT WORTH THE DRIVE FROM SO.CAL? Quote
dunefreak Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Hell yeah Greg. ABSOLUTLEY! Let me know when you are planning a trip. We are gonna do one this summer sometime as well. That place rocks especially for bikes! I can't wait to get back up there. We went for our first time back on Memorial weekend 08 and it was quite an experience. dunes go forever...WAY farther than D Sitting on top of those huge dunes lookin out across the valley is breath taking cool azz steep trails typical holiday camp situation at the base of sand mountain Quote
Randog Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 That place looks sweet. I wanna climb that hill on my 70. :atc: Don't they call that hill the motor killer? Quote
sand chick Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Here is the link for the trip report from last Memorial Day... Pretty sure we are going to try it again this year and bring the bikes this time around!! Maybe get to see more of it!! Memorial Trip Report Little Sahara Quote
sand chick Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 How is it for big cars like ours? As far as I could tell...the bigger cars were out and gone and having a blast..not 100% since we were down the first day! :freakin_nuts: with nothing else to ride...so I really didn't see much, thats why I am hoping to do a return trip for Memorial Day.

dunefreak Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 From my experience of Little Sahara, it's fun with sand cars (even big ones)...but it seems like more of a place for bikes and side x sides since there are so many trails and steep hills. I had fun in my car, but to tell you the truth I was almost sacred to death of breaking down back behind Sand Mountain. I couldn't even imagine trying to tow a broken sand car around or up that hill, especially a big car. I heard there's an easier way to get back to camp from back there, but it's pretty far. LS reminds me of Coral Pink but WAY bigger and larger hills and dunes. That place rocks. I can't wait to burn through a ton of gas up there next trip. This time we'll probably be with some peeps who would like to dune all damn day long so it should be a blast. :freakin_nuts: Quote
HEG Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 Thanks for all the info and pics looks like we need to check it out for sure. sure glad gas prices are down this year i beleive its pretty cold there in the winter and early spring :freakin_nuts: so im thinking a summer run would be best.... thanks again Quote
Sandfrk33 Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 How long of a trip was it from vegas? Might have to plan a trip this summer. Quote
dunefreak Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 i think it took us about 6 hrs towing the hauler Quote
tylerthehucker Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) for some video of it i just saw today a new great ride open episode filmed at little sahara on fuel. not sure when its airing again or if you can find it online somewhere, but it was pretty neat and the place looks really fun. but it was snowing when they were there :freakin_nuts: Edited March 10, 2009 by tylerthehucker Quote
tylerthehucker Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 actually... http://www.hulu.com/watch/42728/the-great-...n-little-sahara there it is :freakin_nuts: Quote
randyvw Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 always wanted to go there...maybe i will go with you guys instead of my summer coos bay oregon trip. maybe you should try that one sometime too. Quote
