Brandonwells321 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 We are going to Dumont this Monday (8/17). We want to meet with some people out there to ride together. Anyone going out there? We will arrive at 8am and will be on a sand rail and a dirt bike. We just want to meet some people to ride with. Let me know if you can make it!!!

flavtfan Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I think the 110 degree weather might keep people away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalper Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 still crazy hot there, but Armargosa is about 20 degrees cooler than Dumont, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsWeeks Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I would arrive more like 5am if possible. Still warm. We did Armagosa last Sunday, arrived at 5am and 62 degress and left at 10 and it was low 90's. Dumont will be warmer for sure so like I mentioned before, I would definitely try and arrive as the sun comes up if you decide on dumont.

dunefreak Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Gonna be a scorcher out there. It's best to watch the forecast and try to plan for a slight break in the weather. Like Weeks said, 5AM arrival for sure. Not only is it cooler but by 9 AM there are already no shadows and it is very difficult to read the dunes. Be careful if you end up going with only one sandrail. If you break down in the middle of the dunes you are done for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dent boy Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 On the way back from LA today it was 120 in baker this afternoon. Definitely not a good day to go to dumont. It will be stupid hot out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandonwells321 Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 Thanks guys to all the responses. We are on our way out there now. Will arrive around 7:00. This will be a learning curve on trying to pick days to go out. Thanks for the warnings. We won't be exploring at all we will just be on the west side. If you come out look for a sand rail and a dirt bike!!! We would love to ride together!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
