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.

If you tighten your pre-load down more, that will only give you more ride height and will most likely cause it to buck in the whoops. A stiffer lower spring would be a possible solution (or bandaid) but it sounds like you need more compression dampening in the shock (or both).

Sunday Morning: Great Weather And Dunes
dunefreak commented on dunefreak's dune report in Dumont Conditions
Usually late March but there have been dips in the temperature in the past and we have duned into April! -
Well you already said the W word so now it's definitley gonna be windy! Although Dumont sometimes has a forecast of it's own, when Tecopa is calling for 33 mph winds and gusting to over 50mph you can bet on some strong winds at D. You can watch the hourly weather forecast as it gets closer and it may change, but the wind forecast is usually very accurate out there, if not worse than what they say it will be. How do I bear with the wind? Sit in the toyhauler, make some food and drink plenty of this--->

15th Annual Dumont Cleanup: Fun in the Sun
dunefreak commented on dunefreak's article in Dumont News
Awesome! Thanks man. I wish I would have known at the time. haha -
oh.....yeah! April. lol
-
Thanks Terry but as it is now, it would keep my arm from going outside the upper pillar and even the outer edge of the car for the most part. Any shorter and I couldn't reach my turning break or the steering wheel. Trust me I've tried adjusting it shorter and it's at the best length for equal safety and reach for the controls.

And some from the bike

Here's some video from one of the buggy runs.

Thanks for the heads up, IrnBear. That highway can get a little congested!
