Got up there on Labor Day around 2pm.  Was raining so went to get groceries and then it cleared up and was able to ride for an hour or so in some wet sand.

Here is Michelle on mine



Where we stayed.  $30/night.  Day bed, micro, fridge, shower, bath, etc.  4 miles from main camping areas and big dunes.

I think you missed you calling as a photographer!  :grin_nod:  Very nice!

Is that where they shot the atv jump scene for Napoleon Dynamite? Where granny went to the dunes and "broke her coccyx ?" I love that movie!

Once you ride sand, you will never go back.  Soft, fun, challenging, beautiful looking sand, and hardly ANY cleanup after you are done riding.  Wash it off and wipe it down real quick.

Haha NO.  He gave me 5-6 bike lengths and he would catch me at the top of Choke.  I did beat him one race cuz he missed a gear and sounded like his engine was going to fly apart since he was spraying when it happened

Awesome pics AJ

That's my favoritest place in the whole wide world!  Did you guys find the huge bowl behind devil's dune?  We were hitting 68 mph around that thing according to the GPS.

Nice pics, it looks like you guys had a good time.

[Sandeater]

The one just south of Choke?  Deadhorse bowl?  Or China bowl? Has like maybe a 20ft bottom to it (deadhorse)

GPS cordinates for deadhorse are 111 58' 20"W and 43 57' 40"N

Oh ya definitely a GREAT time!  BIG dunes and steep.  I loved it!

Not deadhorse, maybe china bowl, it's like two ridges south of devil's dune.  I didn't know it had a name.

You're right, all us Colorado guys need to get together some time and tear it up.  I'm really trying to make the Little Sahara run October 16-19, I just don't know if I'll have the wife's bike done in time.  Not to mention getting time off from work...

[Sandeater]

Ya I didn't go to that one.  I did go to deadhorse though.  FUN  :grin_nod:

Videos or pictures do NOT do this hill justice!!

First time down and up Choke Cherry 

Most people start a ways back and get a good run to make it up Choke Cherry.  I started AFTER the whoops and actually starting to head up the hill  :grin_nod: :grin_nod:
