marbleous Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 Well everybody we all know where Dumont is, but has anybody driven south of Baker yes on I-15 just short of ZYZZX rd on the east side there seems to be these beatiful Virgin sand dunes. Has anybody ever ridden these dunes????? Rumors has it its 3X the size of Dumont, any info would be appreciated.. Quote
THE BOMB Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 (edited) Sounds like Kelso Dunes.....been closed since the late 80's I do believe .....thanks Clinton.....tree hugh'in, liberal Democrat peice of monkey......oh, sorry. Closest you can ride there is the tip of Kelso called Razor (spelling ?).....not very big and from what I heard not worth the trip if you're a sand junkie! My dream (legacy) would be to re-open Kelso and Eureka dunes....Riiiiight! Edited November 6, 2006 by THE BOMB Quote
sanddunesaddict Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 Yeah Kelso has been closed for along time. I have pics of it from when dad and friends went..It is huge.Dunes are bigger than Dumont. But we will never get to play on them. Quote

marbleous Posted November 6, 2006 Author Posted November 6, 2006 Well I guess everybody is interested in these mystery dunes. How the hell do we get there???? Quote
Bound4Dirt Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 Well I guess everybody is interested in these mystery dunes. How the hell do we get there???? Is this like area 51 Quote
THE BOMB Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 Dunes look pretty crappy with that burnt grass on them....nothing a few paddles couldn't butify! Quote
Don29palms Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 Well I guess everybody is interested in these mystery dunes. How the hell do we get there???? When you leave Baker take Kellbaker Rd. south about 37 miles then turn right onto Kelso Dunes Rd. and go about 2 miles and you're there. with a helmet and without a helmet. Quote
trqjnky Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 screw it, DAY RIDE How big could the fine possibly be??? and do they actually have blm guys sitting out there to arrest wrong doers?? ive got a truck with IOWA license plates and an iowa drivers license. ill drive and if we get busted, "Derr, were from outta town, just moved down here and found these dunes a while back, decided to ride on them"....

SandBox_Kid Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 Lots of info here: Click me. Personally I wouldn't want to get caught. Although 129,000+ acres is a lot of sand. Quote
trqjnky Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 i think it would be worth it, just to experience it once. Quote
SandBox_Kid Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 i think it would be worth it, just to experience it once. I hear ya...I actually gave it some thought about a year ago...then let it go. I have a family and can't afford to possibly lose my toys in a venture. Quote
Spider Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 Yeah thats breaking a law and thats bad. We would be low lifes and not wear a helmet and go ride there!! Yea you sure would be Quote
