rob3 Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 I did a quick search, couldn't find anything, so when did the claim markers go up at Little Dunes? They are right between the bathrooms where everyone parks. 4 corner markers, I looked at the paperwork that is attached and it looks like a large area of the Little dunes is claimed. I wonder how long befor someone pulls them out...?or puts up a fence... Quote
OGP Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 I wonder if making a claim gives them the right to stop Vehicles in that area? I will claim comp hill and only allow certain vehicles on it then. Quote
ynot Posted February 13, 2007 Posted February 13, 2007 My understanding of the mining claims is that several(many) years ago a group of people got together and filed mining claims on the area to protect it from greenies. Quote

rob3 Posted February 14, 2007 Author Posted February 14, 2007 I was surprised to see them; I was thinking it could be a ploy to keep the enviro’s away, or something to lock us out. …Or just something for a buggy or quad to run in to and get hurt. I looked at the paper work attached to the posts, and the claim was filed in September 06 Quote
Dunerocket Posted February 17, 2007 Posted February 17, 2007 I believe it was John Gilbert who had the minining rights at Dumont for 99 years or something like that. He later made some kind of deal with with the blm. I don,t know about the small dunes. Quote
