Dumont Passes for this season (Oct 07- Sept 08)

Important Information about Dumont Dunes Passes

  • Regular weekly passes are $30.
  • Holiday weekly passes are $40.
  • Weekly Passes are good for 7 days.
  • Annual passes are available from BLM for $90 or $120. A $90 pass does not include holidays so a holiday upgrade must be purchased for $10 for each holiday week.
  • You need a pass for each vehicle driven into the dunes---not for your trailer and green sticker vehicles in your truck or trailer, but only for the primary vehicle you drive in with when you enter and exit.
  • Passes can not be given to someone else. Passes may be taken from you by BLM employees if you violate a rule at the dunes.
  • Daily passes are not available.
  • You must purchase a weekly pass even if you only plan on staying for the day.

WHY DID OUR FEES GO UP??!!
The reason the fees went up for the users of Dumont Dunes is because the BLM lost much of it's funding last year. There used to be funds from grants and green sticker money that covered Dumont's operating costs. Dumont must now rely solely on the user fees to pay for operating costs such as BLM staffing, emergency staffing and assistance, and maintenance for such things like grading the entrance road on busy weekends and pit toilet maintenance and repairs. Just because the fees went up doesn't mean you will start to see any "better facilities" or an improved entrance road, etc. If you are curious to see how the user fees were spent last year, click here. The new fee increase is only to make up for the loss of money that they (the BLM) was getting.
 
Some people argue that Glamis is bigger yet cheaper than Dumont. Yes, this is true but Glamis receives other sources of funding other than the user fees (ie:state and government funding) to pay for it's operating costs. You cannot compare the two riding areas when it comes to the fees simply because of this reason.
