Kevlar Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) What is the name of the huge bowl in the attached image, at the placemark? It does have a name right?There is also a very good sized bowl almost directly south of that one thats really fun too. Are there any other bowls or areas that have been named?

wingnut Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) There was a thread about this a while ago.....it was funny sh*t. Most of the peeps call it the super bowl. Edited January 19, 2008 by wingnut Quote
Richard Cheese Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 that other bowl...isnt it more to the northeast? in that first pic you have...the angle is facing south...the one behind banshee hill is more north east...isnt it??? Quote
White Rhino Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) Oh thats called the Cereal Bowl :boyyy: Edited January 19, 2008 by Paul Rob Quote
Mr. Edgy Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 I'm not sure.... but I think it is the "Big Bowl" Quote
Kevlar Posted January 20, 2008 Author Posted January 20, 2008 that other bowl...isnt it more to the northeast? in that first pic you have...the angle is facing south...the one behind banshee hill is more north east...isnt it??? nah, the one I'm referring to is just west of the Super Bowl. I'm calling it the Pro Bowl, cuz only All Stars can play there Can't believe there are not more place names at Dumont. Glamis has Olds and China Wall, St. Anthony has Choke Cherry, Dead Horse, and the Devils Dune. Dumont has the South and North pole? Quote
Kevlar Posted January 20, 2008 Author Posted January 20, 2008 Ok, I've oriented the map so North is up and added some landmarks. Not sure if the fingers have a name or not so I came up with some. The funnel is that tiny bowl just east of the super bowl, the one thats difficult to get out of if you find yourself at the bottom. The Wall (need a better name) is that long tall wall just east of the pro bowl. The Face is the tallest flatest part of the biggest dune. Gimme some more ideas on the section behind banshee hill Quote
indasand Posted January 20, 2008 Posted January 20, 2008 Wait!!! I think it's called the 100 mph bowl.... Derrrrr LOL who cares? Quote
britincali Posted January 20, 2008 Posted January 20, 2008 I was told the big bowl behind banshee was the "superbowl" ???? Quote
Kevlar Posted January 21, 2008 Author Posted January 21, 2008 (edited) Wait!!! I think it's called the 100 mph bowl.... Derrrrr LOL who cares? Yeah, I guess your right. I'm gonna go play the 3 word game. Much more interesting. Jeez Edited January 21, 2008 by Kevlar Quote
vegas style Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 ah....... the wind blew today so everything changed start over Quote
dunefreak Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Yeah, I guess your right. I'm gonna go play the 3 word game. Much more interesting. Jeez seriously...I wish that lame azz thread would just die I have only ever heard of the names on this page, http://www.dumontduneriders.com/popular_spots.html I'm not familiar with those other ones you posted. Never heard of em. Quote
dunefreak Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 The bowl referred to as "the Superbowl" is the bowl adjacent to the camp area just above A3 on the grid map. I guess it's whatever you feel like calling them though. It's not like the BLM offcially names them. Quote

There are also the same landmarks on the maps page as well. If you scroll to the interactive dumont map you can zoom in and look where the bowl and other landmarks are. http://www.dumontduneriders.com/maps.html Quote
