It appears I never locked this thread and IrnBear actually pulled ahead and took the win afterward Steve won so I will put his pic up as June DPOM.

What do you mean? The classifieds are hoppin! Happens every summer. Nobody goes out to the dunes, therefore there's very little activity and new posts. We keep the lights on though. Also, social media has killed the general chat type discussion, even during the season. Not only here, but on many forums. Some sites haven't even survived. We still get plenty of traffic though. Most people just want to read, rather than post. Doesn't really help the situation.

Talk about an amazing experience. Blake Wilkey and his bud Cory Coneen got the royal treatment visiting Qatar. This isn't a short video by an means so grab a drink, put it on full screen or even better, stream it to the big screen and crank it up. Pretty rad video!

Hope to see you back out there next season. It's good you're staying busy, but sometimes you've gotta make fun and relax time a priority.

Hell yeah. I'm looking to pick up a Sprinter van and do a minimalist adventure van build for moto, MTB and everything else we get into outside of dune season. I can't wait. Got my parts list already started.

These were actually Polaris RZRs.

A buddy and I jammed down to Flagstaff this weekend to check out the Overland Expo. Talk about some serious adventure rigs. Some were cool. Others were ridiculous and overkill. Either way it was a good time and we saw some pretty cool stuff. Here are some pics. The rest are on my blog FB page, https://www.facebook.com/livelikepete/photos/?tab=album&album_id=745084242339680

haha nice. Is that one of Yoshi's Sinister cars? I always wonder how they did in the sand.

PICS or it didn't happen.

Has anyone been watching the forecast? It's looking like May is barely going to be seeing the 90's for highs. I think my last trip in March we saw 95°. I'm starting to wonder if I should prep the buggy and get back out there. Yesterday it was in the 60's! Just goes to show this time of year is always unpredictable.

It was a quiet Easter weekend out at Dumont Dunes. Most people have already wrapped up the season and called it quits. The warm April temperatures tend to keep most people from going out, but for those who made the trip, they had some great weather and some awesome sand. The daytime temperatures were mostly in the 80's, still plenty cool enough to dune. With no crowds, the sand was typical of what you would expect in the middle of summer. There were hardly any tracks and the dunes were full of razorbacks. It's always sad to see the season come to an end, but there's always breaks in the weather that allow for a quick fix. You just have to have the sand toys ready to load up and go! photos courtesy of @agphd via Instagram

haha they beat the crap out of that truck. I can't say they did anything I haven't done out there in a truck at some point.
-
Every single trip for me. It's about 30 minutes faster for me and about 20 miles shorter. That allows for more or at the dunes so I'll take it! My truck & hauler are about 60 feet long and I have no problem with any part of the route. Been taking that way for almost two decades.

Dumont happens every day. It's not a big holiday out, but I'm sure some people will out there.

Be careful out there and have a great weekend. Those dunes are going to be PRISTINE after these winds. I'm jealous. Please post up some pics or shoot over a dune report via this page, http://www.dumontduneriders.com/conditions/

Work instead of dunes? lame!

I doubt it. Friday calls for strong gusts too.
