dunefreak Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Who's all planning on going? The waterpumpers will be there again. Hard to believe it'll be the 48th annual hill climbs and drags. The info is posted on the news page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P-rot Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Having a great trip so far! Little bit of rain this morning and supposed to rain again tomorrow morning. Good wind this afternoon got a little exfoliated on our ride but other than that great so far! Not many vendors yet but hopefully that will change as we get closer to the holiday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, Steve did a little testing Sunday, all worked out with the mosebuilt had a couple of adjustments with the brackets and he is coming on Thursday or Friday, Garry from our group showed up on Saturday, myself sandrash and Markha is getting there tomorrow, itsweeks I think is Tuesday or Wednesday, think it depends on the new car being finished up, he is working hard at it, and Jetjock is coming out around the same time as us late Monday, stop by bathroom 9, everyone have a happy thanksgiving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably just do a day trip on Saturday but I'll be there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MP135 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Question for you avid Dumont users, a small group of us are heading out tomorrow; I'm looking at parking/camping near #9 bath I have a heavy "Bob Tail" box truck I'm bringing out, is there anything to expect, as far real soft sand heading that way, thanks Mike.

You'll be fine out that way. It's hard packed and fairly rocky out that direction. Just hang a left as soon as you get to top of the plateau near the visitor center. Welcome to the site, Mike.

MP135 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Another question, is that a nice spot? or would you suggest an alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all personal preference. I don't think there's many bad spots. Over by 9 is usually pretty quiet and dust/ traffic free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P-rot Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Day report- didnt see the dunes, did a rzr ride to the date farm today then explored the mines on the way back. Blew out both passenger side rims and tires on my friends rzr right as we got back to the dunes and that killed the day. Other than that weather has been great and riding has been perfect. A little bit of chop and whitches eyes are way worse than they were 10 years ago but still great to ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted November 23, 2016 Author Share Posted November 23, 2016 From what I have heard there is already quite the crowd out there. I'm still just shooting for a day trip on Saturday. I'm not feeling up to a weekend trip until Buggy Roundup. @duniemonkie and I will roll out with the buggy, socialize and play around in the sand for the day. We're going to try to hit up the BLM meeting at 10AM and check out the waterpumpers. I have a few people I'd like to meet this weekend too.
