"The Wall" at Dumont Dunes
We spent five days at Dumont Dunes (the week between Christmas and New Year's Day.) This is "THE WALL" that everyone talks about. According to the book "Death Valley SUV Trails" by Roger Mitchell, "the highest dune rises 450 feet above the valley floor" (pg. 146). The pictures never do it justice! You just have to go there in person to see it for yourself.

Gary and Debi are riding in a borrowed Polaris RZR "Razor". We had just sold both of our quads prior to Christmas. (We need more money to finish the house, of course!) We had a lot of fun on the Razor, and when our log cabin is finished, we plan to buy a Razor. It's nice to sit in real seats and not have to straddle a seat like you do on quads. It's comfortable to have a backrest and a place to put your feet. There's no need to wear out your thumb with a throttle because the RZR uses a gas pedal. We are sold on the Razor because it has a 50" wheel base that will allow it to fit on the Paiute ATV trails in Utah. (Rhinos are too big to fit on the Paiute trail.)
Gary and Debi rode out to the "North Pole" at Dumont Dunes. This is the northernmost point of the dunes and it is marked with this festive pole!
Fun, fun!!! Even from the picture, the wall looks gigantic!
