The Sand Mountains Are Calling — It’s Dune Time Again!
Gear up for an unforgettable weekend of off-road fun in the ultimate Sandbox. We’re heading to Dumont Dunes, an awesome desert playground perfect for exploring, learning dune driving and discovering your Rivian’s limits on the sand.
Whether you’re brand new to dunes or a seasoned sand rider, we’ll help you feel confident and in control. With wide open terrain, gentle rolling dunes, and stunning views in every direction, Dumont has adventure waiting around every dune.
🛞 All Rivian configurations, wheels, and experience levels are welcome! Also welcome any and all non-Rivian sand toys, 4x4's, friends and family to join.

⚡ Nearest DC Fast Chargers: Shoshone (27 mi): Rivian Adventure Network – 6x 300kW stations Baker (37 mi): Tesla Supercharger, Electrify America & EVGO. Plan to arrive with a high state of charge for more wheel time in the sand.
🏕️ Camping & Accommodations: Camp right on the sand! Dumont Dunes is BLM land with open camping, vault toilets, and incredible starlit skies. Be prepared — there’s no running water or electricity, so bring your own gear and supplies for a true off-grid desert experience.
⛅️ Weather: ​Avg High Temp around 59°F (15°C) & Low Temp around 33°F 🥶 (1°C) at night, often dipping near or slightly below freezing. Pack layers, warm gear, an extra sleeping bag, comforter or electric blanket just in case. It can get windy, pack tie-downs, stakes, lag screws & sandbags for anything that can blow away.
Family Fun: 🌌🔭🌚 New Moon, estimated 8% illumination Saturday night so it will be dark enough for some Star-gazing. 🧑‍🎄One of the DD landmarks is the North Pole so bring your letters to Santa. 🏂Bring your Sandboards, snow-sleds, skim-boards or anything else you think might slide down the dunes. 🎥 🍿 Movie Night...?
🏨 Nearby accommodation options: Tecopa, CA (22 miles): RV park, small hot spring spa resorts, and Airbnbs Shoshone, CA (27 miles) : Quaint Shoshone Inn, Shoshone RV park, restaurant, and general store.
🚩 Whips & Flags: A whip / flag is required on all recreational motor vehicles at Dumont Dunes.
📢 Handheld Radios: Tune in to Channel GMRS 22
🌅 Come for the dunes — stay for the adventure. Bring your sense of exploration and join fellow Rivian owners for a fun, relaxed weekend in the desert!
🤲 Don't have a Whip flag or GMRS Handheld radio? Want help mounting a whip, need a piece of camping gear perhaps an extra cooler? Let us know in the chat, we have spares available in community support.
