This is a trip up to the Great Sand Dunes in Colorado. It's a comfortable 3-4 hour drive and worth seeing some spectacular sand dunes in the middle of a mountain range. One group will be an overnight camping group and the other will take a day trip up and return Saturday evening, stopping for a lovely dinner in the picturesque town of Taos.

Car 1: Daniel's Car, going to GREAT SAND DUNES CO, camping: 4 seats

The plan is to drive up to Great Sand Dunes early Saturday AM, hike in to a backcountry site and camp Saturday night. Possibly driving through Taos on the way back Sunday.

Accommodations

Daniel Wuellner I have a two-person tent if we decide to camp (at the (rainy) moment I'm ambivalent about camping).

Steven Lade I also have a two-person tent (and a tarp, if a third person wants to bivvy). I'm keen to camp at the backcountry campsite, I think it would be awesome -- although I'm aware not everyone may share this opinion!
