    I love going up to those hills. Last time I jumped the 4 Runner, and my roommate rolled the quad...it was fun! I would be down but will be in Hawaii, I guess you have to choose your battles.

    I often see rigs with orange flags on them sticking way up above the roof when driving on the dunes. Where do you get something like that?

    atleast in michigan u were required to run em make accidents less likely to happen. There the flags were for sale right near the dune entrance. I am assuming they will be for sale in the town near it or right there.
