| asaking11 | The Dunes  Date Climbed: Jul 4, 2011 | |
| I've been living on the base in Mountain Home for about a month now, and I finally got around to go play on the dunes. The main dune is huge and quite a little grunt to get to the top, but very fun. There were tons of mosquitos out. | |

| from the top. We try to make it out here once a year to really feel what a lot of sand in your shoe feels like. | |

| Ah, yes. One of the very first places I visited when I came to Idaho. We camped overnight and it was as cold as any night I've spent in the mountains. Walked over the dunes the following day. Nice starlit sky. | |

| Had to make a quick trip to Mt. Home on business and found a few hours to zip down to the dunes. Great place, but the blinding sand and wind were terrrible. | |

| My notes from my journal from the day I climbed Bruneau Dunes... "Sitting on top of one of the dunes at Bruneau Dunes State Park in Idaho. Down below are flocks of honking geese on a lake. They're making a racket, and faintly in the distance I can hear several fighter jets. The lake is still frozen and it shimmers in the intense sun. All the geese are congregated around a center portion that is unfrozen. A flock or two will take off and land at intervals; as they do so the honking increases. The dunes are so sharply set against the bright blue sky, only a few clouds float overhead to soften the view. The sand is a soft tan, fine and smooth. More geese are arriving now and a jet is flying overhead." | |

| I'm from Mountain Home but only lived there for a short time. The Bruneau Sand Dunes were the closest place to go on weekends. My parents especially enjoyed fishing in the nearby lake. | |
