We arrived at Dumont just after 5 am and it was a gorgeous 80 degrees. There were 4 buggies and 4 side x sides that made it out. As we unloaded we noticed a young man walking towards us from the south end of the cam area. He was out there alone sandboarding since 6PM the night before and was stuck in Hyundai Santa Fe. One of the guys lent him a hand and pulled him out with a truck. The wind blew nice and steady all morning and kept things cool. The dunes were super soft and sharp as expected for June. We were the only ones there except for one truck that came in for about an hour with one 4 seat Can Am Maverick. They went off and duned by themselves for about an hour; not something we'd recommend doing alone this time of year. We waited to make sure they made it back ok before we pulled out. We ended up staying there until about 11:30 am but at that hour the wind subsided some and it got hot really quick! It was 110° when we left. Overall it was a great day in the dunes with no mishaps and a great group of duners. We'll probably do another one this summer so stay posted here on DDR. more photos here, http://www.dumontduneriders.com/invision/index.php?showtopic=20184

It's hot but we don't care. A group of us are heading out and planning on getting to Dumont at sunrise on Sunday 6/14/2015. Experienced duners are welcome to join us. Conditions are always sketchy in the summertime so we always take it easy and roll together in a group. We usually dune for about 4 hours and then pack it up and get out of there before the 100+ temps roll in. If you are interested, we'll be meeting across from bathroom 10 at about 5:20-5:30. The sun comes up rather quickly so we always get to duning right away. Be sure you're ready. Summer is one of the best times to experience Dumont. The sand is never this smooth and steep during the season. Forum discussion is here so if you are in or have any questions, hit us up. http://www.dumontdun...=20168&p=251478
