People say the Oregon Dunes are some of the best:) I don't have anything to compare them to but it is lots of fun;)

I'll second St. Anthony's for pure riding...I've been to Glamis, Dumont, Pismo, Winchester, Florence, Coos bay, Sand mtn. nev. nothing beats SA. IMHO

Boy Glamis or Saint Anthony's, thats a tough choice. Both great but Glamis gets my vote just because it is HUGE, Sand capital of the world.

If you're willing to drive across the entire country just to hit one set of dunes, then why not drive across the country and hit ALL the dunes.

Sand Mountain in Nevada is definitly not the biggest or best, but I will personally give you a guided tour.

St Anthonys is unreal, I just got back from there last week. It is definately worth driving across the country for. It puts oregon to shame.

It depends on the time of the year. Summer time St. Anthony or Oregon are your best choices, spring and fall then Little Sahara, UT is pretty warm while the other places are cooling off and of course in teh winter Glamis is the only game in town besides Sand Mountain, NV and Dumont.

Glamis is the biggest area but not the biggest dunes - St. Anthony has the biggest dunes. If I were driving from PA I would hit St. Anthony and Little Sahara, UT. Glamis is a lot further if you are pressed for time.

I have pics and videos from some of these places on my site.
