Oregon Sand Dunes

Just outside of the campground, a massive area of large sand dunes await..............

Lee Duquette struggles to walk up this very steep sand dune in the hopes of sliding down. Karen stays below to take photographs, then will have her turn at the sand dune.

ABOVE: After the struggle to reach the top, Lee discovers that the sand is just too soft to slide down. Talk about a major disappointment for both Karen and Lee.
 
BELOW: The two RV Gypsies hike up a different sand dune to get to the Pacific Ocean. It proved to be a lot steeper than it looks.

Looking back down the path at the car of the two RV Gypsies, gives a better view of how steep the sand dune is.

It is not easy walking in the very soft sand up the dune - although it does not look steep, it is steep, and Karen is laughing so hard, and that makes it even more difficult to get to the top of the sand dune.

Now it is Karen's turn to video tape Lee struggling up the hill. Perhaps someday the videos will find their way to this web site.
