Hey I know there are a bunch of people on the board who go to St Anthonys every year. We are leaving next week for a week.
Just out of curiosity. What should we look for ie: any certain hill or location that is fun to go. Is there a place where everyone likes to go in the dunes OK FINE WHERE ARE THE SWEET SPOTS!!
Thank you

This is my first trip too... I have no idea where to go or how to get there. I'm just gonna follow my fellow GD.com-ers and hope for the best.

Where are you staying? If it's Desert Oasis, the first big hill you will come to is Thunder Mountain. Not really very big, but a few people usually hang out there.
Some of the other hot spots are Choke Cherry Hill, very steep and long hill climb. Cool place to hang and watch the hill shooters. Deadhorse bowl is a huge bowl and also check out Devils Dune. Don't have GPS for the spots, maybe someone else does.
You'll have a blast, when you going?

Brandon-
Where are you staying at? We will also be up there next week (should be there by the 26th) and staying thru the 12th (Desert Oasis). If you are interested you guys can always come meet up with all of us for a couple rides

We are staying at the Desert Oasis. I will be there 06/29 - 07/05. I hope to see everyone out there so we can tag along on some rides!

Brandon-
We will be in spot 12...hopefully late Sunday night, Monday if we have any issues. Twelve is the very first spot as you come down the road from the dunes. Kerrin and Wayne are at the end of the next row (the middle one), I think Socaldmax is next to them. Bohica and Duneflyer are at the other end (down by the showers). You are always more than welcome to come along on a ride

Is your Dad coming with you?
BTW-You should join us for the 4th of July Potluck:

Actually, I honestly don't think you'll be able to go more than 1-2 trailers before being at someone off the boards trailer!

Brandon...we'll also be at the D.O., pulling in the afternoon of the 1st (hopefully) Don't know our spot numbers, but we're in the back row of the full hookup area somewhere. Hope to get to meet you and check out your nice ride. And like Julie said, is your dad gonna be there too?
BeachHead
Jun 23 2005, 03:31 PM
I think next year we should just reserve the whole hook up area...

Sounds Great!!
Yes My dad is going we will have both our cars out there. His new car is being completed as we speak. We will all for sure get together. I would like to go to the potluck so I will look at the list and figure out what to bring.
On the way out there, is there a half way point where everyone stays or do you push through in one day?

Lots of t-storms in the forecast. Looks to be clearing for my arrival on the 3rd.
We drive around 12 hours just past Salt Lake and spent the night in a mall parking lot. Short 4 hour drive from there early the next morning.

Brandon-
Having bought stuff from both of you, it'll be nice to get a chance to actually meet you

And I think prime rib is still open for the potluck

BTW-
Our biggest thing is to get NORTH of Salt Lake before we stop-traffic there in the AM is the absolute PITS as 15 is the only "real" freeway.

We're just a couple hours from leaving. A little more loading and we're off...... I can't wait to see everyone up there. You are right BeachHead nothing vaction always ends so quick. A week and a half just isn't long enough.

Have fun!
