I actually like Roadrunner the best for the dune rides to china BUT it will be crowded with all of the big rigs, they will be parked 4 deep vertically parking lot style...too much crowd for me.
Plus all of the high HP buggies chew up the sand between camp & the dunes on the west side.
I prefer to not stay in the washes with all the dust but Gecko will be jam packed and the washes will allow us to circle camp deterring the rangers from cruising through camp looking for violations. The good thing about Beards camp at the end of wash 1 is that we hardly ever see a ranger even on a big weekend like t-day or new years.
