Seize the Weekend!

You just never know what kind of spring weather you'll get at Dumont this time of year. Usually it starts getting plenty warm by now, but the temperatures have dropped and stayed low enough to squeeze a little more season out of the dunes. Our friends at GTP Offroad were scheduled to go up north and hit Coral Pink Dunes for the weekend of April 30-May 1st, however the forecast showed it was going to be super cold. On the flip side, Dumont was looking nice and cool with only a slight chance of rain. They didn't let that stop them though. They packed it up and headed out to the empty, overcast dunes. The dunes were smooth and they only saw a couple drops of rain all weekend. The wind was fierce Friday night, but conditions remained a step above amazing all weekend long. So to those who think the season is over, you just never know. Have your toys ready, keep an eye on that forecast and you just might be able to seize an epic weekend in the sand and have it all to yourself. Speaking of doing that...check out those temps for this weekend! (mid 70's!)
