MLK Weekend 2017, A Duner's Weekend

2017 kicks off with the first holiday weekend of the year, MLK weekend. More commonly referred to as a "duner's weekend" rather than a party weekend, it's never very busy. Although holiday passes are still required (Jan 10 thru Jan 16, 2017), don't expect it to be difficult to find a good camp spot.

On Saturday you can catch the 16th Annual Four Stroke Wars at Banshee Hill. See some of the world's fastest Banshee's and four strokes battle it out. More info: http://www.dumontduneriders.com/invision/calendar/event/191-16th-annual-four-stroke-wars/

The Dumont Visitor Center will not be open for MLK and the BLM/Ranger station will be manned with a small staff the the weekend. Hopefully those dunes will dry out over the next week and conditions will be great. Have a fun & safe weekend if you're heading out. Don't forget to send us your dune reports via our Dumont Conditions page and pics via Instagram @dumontduneriders or #dumontduneriders!
