Dumont Christmas Vacation 2015

sand chick · December 28, 2015

We traditionally head out to Dumont during Christmas week. This year we headed out Tuesday night and spent 5 glorious days out in the sand.

Love the emptiness of the dunes, and counted about 10 - 12 rigs altogether, until Christmas day.

The full moon, sunsets and stars were spectacular.

The wind on Christmas eve night, made for some buttery smooth dunes for Christmas day and with the temp at 69 degrees and very little breeze, the day was perfection!

Saturday's windstorm was crazy! We hung out in the hauler, cleaned and fixed some things, mounted some photos and relaxed with cocktails until we could stand it no longer, then we braved the wind and headed out to play. Laughing so hard at the craziness of being sand blasted.

It was a great trip!

All the windy conditions made for some excellent photos of the ripply untouched dunes.

When we headed out this afternoon, the crowds were already starting to roll in.

Don from Dune Mart, CA Casuals, and Desert Bling were already set up on Vendor Row and Beefy Boys Facebook page said they were going to be out Weds - Saturday of the New Year weekend. GTP Off Road won't be vending that weekend, but we will be out there playing for back to back weekends. So if there is anything you need from them, hit them up Monday and Tuesday.

Some photos from the weekend..
