dune elevation guide
« on: October 19, 2013, 09:02:57 pm »
Starting this thread to give travelers a source for elevation changes to make  jetting changes when traveling to dunes. If you are a local please give elevation to your nearest dune riding area. Michigan, Oklahoma, Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, California, Oregon, Washington, ext... lets keep the b.s. to a minimal for a reference page! Thank you for the input.
