    I recall visiting a few forums last year around this time and there was alot of folks here and there making some runs to Saline Valley, Xterra's, Tacoma's Jeeps, Rovers, etc..during the Veterans day weekend. We camped at dunes and filmed at least a dozen overlanders coming and going by the dunes enroute to Saline Valley over Steel pass.
    I know we like to see our rigs in the movies so take peek to see if you were one of these caught on film. Movie is 40 minutes long sograb some popcorn and a beer.


    Let us know in the comments if you were one of the ones I captured.

    Description:
    November of 2014 we visited Eureka Dunes in Death Valley. On the way we stopped atWhitmore Hot Tubs and drove thru the Volcanic Tablelands area. Chidago Canyon, Red RockCanyon and onto the Petroglyphs and FishSlough. After a couple of days exploring thedunes and the Last Chance mountains. Weheaded up over the famed Steel Pass and Dedekera Canyon down into Saline Valley WarmSprings. In this show I did some gear reviews for the Volcano Grill, our Fiamma Awning, and our GCI Outdoor chairs. Hopefully you'll find the information useful.
    Come along for the ride.

    Just a heads up, fireworks are illegal in DVNP. Rangers do patrol all the way out in Eureka. I'd suggest an edit to your video not showing that. Stuff like that brings negative attention. Plenty of other places to light fireworks than national parks.

    I am former LEO and well aware of the fireworks restrictions of which I don't take part, (except for the pictures). If you were paying attention you would have heard me say our neighbors in the Tundras were playing with the fireworks.
    Appreciate your concern
