  2. We cruised around June Lake yesterday. Good times & gorgeous weather.
  3. Thanks Vic. I'll check that out. I say maybe to Yosemite because I hate crowds. The last time I was there it was awful. We may just pop in via the Tioga Rd and see a couple spots instead of going into the village.
  4. Anna and I are hitting up our favorite band tomorrow night (The Dirty Heads) at Mandalay Beach here in Vegas, celebrating my 41st birthday on Saturday, then we're hitting the road for the next 8 or 9 days in our Sprinter van. We'll be heading to Mammoth Lakes area, maybe Yosemite, then Lake Tahoe and we'll see from there. We have no agenda other than to enjoy some cooler weather, drink some cold beer, & do some mountain biking.
  5. It's hot! What is everyone up to? How are you staying cool? What trips do you have planned? Where's your summer escape?
  6. Memorial Weekend, submitted by @raspadoo
  7. Old skool! That car is rad. Good luck on the build.
  8. No more OE version, but I'll look at what I have and let ya know.

  11. Nothing wrong with that. Plenty of adrenaline in rock crawling. I love that stuff. Hope to see ya one of these days soon.
  12. @JeepingJay36 owns a sign company and could probably get you some made up. I've got a handful. What size are you looking for?
  13. I've been building it since December and we're finally just about done with it. I'll be posting a full build thread after I'm 100% done. You can check it out on my blog. I have to get the build updated on there too, but some of it is already documented. http://livelikepete.com/category/van-build/ It's been a long road and lots of work, but it has finally come together! Super stoked. There's more of the build on my Instagram too, https://www.instagram.com/pete_greep/ or our newly created, shared account (dicksinavan) https://www.instagram.com/dicksinavan/
  14. Yeah that place sounded good when a friend told us about it, then we learned you have to pay $40+ per person and there's not even a chairlift.
  15. Nice mix of fun stuff there. How are you liking the 1090?
  16. What did you do for Memorial Weekend? Post a pic or five. We did a little camping, mountain biking and relaxing at Big Bear with our newly built out Sprinter.
  17. Many people are already planning for next season. With Halloween landing on a Wednesday this year, there has been some confusion as to what weekend is the official "Halloween Weekend" at Dumont. Halloween weekend kicks off the 2018/2019 Dumont season on October 27-28, 2018. It is always the last weekend of October. So start your planning now! Forum discussion...
  18. until
    Although Halloween falls on a Wednesday this year, Halloween weekend at Dumont is the last weekend in October (Oct 27-28).
  19. The 2017/2018 dune season has unofficially come to a close and there have already been a handful of days touching that 100-degree mark on the thermometer. This may make you unbolt your paddle tires and hit the lake instead. However, springtime at Dumont still offers many perfect-weather days to go out and enjoy the dunes. You can still catch a cool weekend if you watch the weather forecast. Many days have highs in the 80's and 90's. That sounds warm for the dunes, but what that means is beautiful mornings in the 60's and 70's. Wake up and be the only one making tracks in the sand then hang out in the shade or dip your feet in the Amargosa River (if there is water flowing of course). Then once the sun has cast some shadows the other direction, get another run or two in before enjoying a quiet night under the stars without any neighbors blasting their music or scaring your dogs away with their fireworks. My point is don't hang it up quite yet! If you are already having sand-withdrawals, there still is a cure. Just don't wait too long because before you know it, the overnight lows will be 105°. Take advantage of the empty, smooth dunes while you can. Keep in mind that while Memorial weekend is not considered a popular Dumont holiday weekend because of the warmer daytime highs, there are usually still some die-hard duners still making a weekend out of it. Get out there and shred! Tips for duning "out of season" Always bring water with you on dune runs Watch out for those "witch eyes", holes and shelves Never dune alone Bring other experienced duner friends A tow strap and spare parts that regularly break are always good insurance
  20. bling BLING! Looks nice, Clark
