The dunes with the Quains...

 
On Monday we headed out to the Olancha sand dunes. We've been there before a few years ago, but that trip was VERY different. It was COLD, WINDY, RAINY and very miserable the last time we went. I don't think anyone even had a successful run down the dunes on that trip.
Monday was different. It was a gorgeous day, beautiful blue sky, no wind and perfect temperatures. A great day to go sand boarding!
Everyone in the group went down to dunes at least once!
Sometimes by themselves and sometimes together:
N8 and Taylor were the brave ones and stood up on the boards while they went down:
The only downside of going down, is that you have to climb back up the dune!!
We had a great time:
Anyone that has company coming this way that includes teenagers should look into taking the out sand boarding!

That looks so much fun. And what beautiful mountains you have behind you.

That does look fun. I notice you're using long boards. We just used the plastic saucers on the dunes in New Mexico--do the sand boards work better?
