The wind was wild and cold. You can sort of see the sand blowing off the top of the dunes in the picture to the right. This was as close as we dared get to the top because the wind was blowing so powerfully, we were being sandblasted, and I was worried about being blown away.
I was surprised that much of the sand looks more orange than pink, especially near the park entrance and overlook. Further north, the reds are more apparent. There's a parking area just before the pay area as you drive toward the park. I climbed the dunes there and took a few pictures that follow.
Unfortunately, at the actual state park area, the coolest dunes are
beyond the wooden fence where ATVs zoom past at ridiculous speeds.
Walkers are supposed to stay out I guess, but there were no signs posted
and we crossed over the fence.
At the State Park, a nice family was also on the dunes with us and the dad offered to take our picture.
