It's right at the top of the screen!
And after you find out why the fees went up, you'll realize that they aren't really us at all. The BLM lost much of it's funding for Dumont. So if you like that fact that there is medical staff and BLM rangers to patrol the idiots out there I think most people don't mind paying whatever it takes for them to be out there for us.
Where have you been, Brett?
^ that is right on the top of the forum and all over the homepage as well.
I guess that just proves I can't get the info across to some people no matter what. jackass!
I don't see a trip to Oregon anywhere in my near future. I'd love to go there, but I can barely afford to make it to DUMONT let alone the 17-18 hr drive up north to Oregon.
yeah, you'll just have to cut to the left before you get to that area and drive between camps is all.
If you just stay to the left though and as far as possible from the finger you should be fine. It's the fools that always drive right through the SOFT sand off the end of the finger that get stuck.

my dune addiction----> <---me
I'm gonna take up knitting and start making DDR sweaters instead of duning.
I wonder if T-Day will be as crowded this year with the economy in the crapper and fuel prices being rediculous.
correct. I have heard that as well. I don't think beadlock wheels are DOT approved. Stupid huh? They can hold up to extreme desert abuse but aren't approved for a paved road.
I see and hear of way more issues with the alluminum (corrugated type) siding pulling apart. This is the first issue I have ever seen with the fiberglass sides.
T-Day is always very crowded out there. Just a reminder to everyone to never let the important things slip your mind when it comes to duning safety. Be extra careful out there and watch out for others.
Take another look over the Rules, Saftey Tips, and Dune Ettiquette flyer to refresh your memory of the things that matter the most when it comes to duning.

If everyone has these items fresh in their head, maybe some accidents can be avoided this weekend and we can all read about your great weekend you had after you get back instead of the sad stories that we sometimes hear about.
Everyone be safe out there this weekend and have a great Thanksgiving.
