My inlaws just move to Salem OR. They're trying to get me to visit by telling me that they have ATVs buzzing the sand dunes, just 10 minutes away. I think Coos Bay is about 4 hours away. What dunes are they talking about?

 

Sand Lake is the closest place to salem.... then Florence wich is about 2-1/2 hrs away. Lots of mountain riding close though. If you go into the ATVing chat room in the evenings alot of people in there are from Oregon

Hope this helps

 

Sand lake is good but Florence is better. You will enjoy the visit!
