This Sand Mountain one, you had to park a distance from it due to not wanting to get stuck in the thick sand, so you were worn out from trudging thru the sand before you made it to the mountain. Just remembered, I've climbed short sand dunes at White Sands National Monument in New Mexico.Durango Roadtrippinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07772200948520447735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6196252722752319622.post-73507050553316652352009-05-21T08:51:53.186-07:002009-05-21T08:51:53.186-07:00WOW...600 hundred feet!?!

We rent big plastic discs, wax the bottoms...climb up the dune to the very top and then slide down really fast...:) Also, during the summer they offer camel rides which my daughter enjoys. We love the dunes...we pretend we're adventurers searching for an oasis.Cheap Tricks and Costly Truthshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09280680459962415249noreply@blogger.com
