If you all going on this date you better get your reservation in asap.  Looking at the idaho dunes camp site map every weekend is full so we can not stay more then five days in any one of the spots. I rather imagine that the BLM site will be over flowing the week also. Was talking with the people we stayed on there place last year after we left the camp ground and they told us everything including the church parking lots are full. Unfortunately Sylvia and I will not make it this year. On the 17th of August we will be picking up our son Cary from the gates of hell that he has endured for the last twelve years.  This is a date I nor Sylvia can not miss. I am going to try and come up late August after we get Cary re-entered into society for a bit. 

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

Is there some event that week? If so,if I go,I'd prefer we planned on a less busy week. It's up to all others though. We need to pin this down guys.

I thought it was an event free week from earlier posts, but as you say, I would rather go when there is nothing going on!

Idaho Dunes - August  (first week in September is pretty wide open but that might not work for people with kids/school)










Sand hills resort August 12th thru 20th.  I think the whites ones are booked ???

not sure any of us have large enough fuel tanks to camp at sand hills and play on the big dunes

We could park one vehicle @ the BLM with fuel.

Just strap extra fuel in back of car.  Its what Razor guys do, works fine; most of the time. LOL

Or call me I will bring ya some fuel, 2-1/2 day wait.  May be faster to walk out.

The BLM site best I remember no reservations, first come first serve?  That would SUCK!.  Theres a better route to sand hills w/o brush tree covered mtns.  And avoid the lave rocks, I'm sure.  We just never found it.
You can keep your CHANGE, I'd like to keep my DOLLAR.

I 'think' I may have found a main trail when I ventured that way on the Brute, but was more interested in finding out what the mining operation was in the red hill to the North..

At least I found brother Don a rock for his fire pit during the adventure  lol

 Am I missing something? All of those green Vs Mean that the spots are vacant.
It appears that the campsites are wide open for this week

very nice of you to do so and i'm sure he will be estatic to see his folks. however after 12 years he'll need some company for a couple to few weeks. 

now theres really only 2 week span in aug i can take a full week off. and that's pretty much the only time of the year i can do so because of my job. scottsmith has been asking me for quite some time if anyone picked a date so i have posted the question if the 12th thru 20th work. so far everyone has said yes. he had to bid his vacation time and he picked those dates. so i will be going that week  i plan on getting there that sat...aug 12th and will leave fri morning aug 18th and i will try and get the same site i got last time at idaho rv. i think it was site 32

fast it's a shame you can't go but i would like to make this trip a yearly trip so next year. i will see you at LS though.
