do you happen to do the iron cty poker runs ? We do the memorial weekend , and the pumpkin run . I've seen a baja ds there before , but they are pretty rare that far north . There are no dunes in indiana that I know of , just the badlands offroad park . in MI there is the Silver Lake sand dunes that are pretty much straight across the lake from manitioc , WI

The badlands are the dunes in Indiana. Not really dunes just big sand hills and pits. Nice place.

ditto that, no dunes in Indiana, the Badlands used to be a gravel pit and now it is sand piles, sand pits, and woods trails, but it is not true dune sand and does not drift, its full of gravel. great place though, loads of fun, 800 acres total to ride on.

closest true dunes to you are Silver Lake Michigan, next closest is Little Sahara Oklahoma. Silver Lake is only 450 acres of riding, Little Sahara is 2,000 acres and well worth the extra miles for ya. I frequent both, and both are a blast. Find links and pics for both at the website in my signature.

welcome to the forum!
