Great White Rides the Winchester Dunes Roller Coaster July 2010

Great White driving the sand dunes at Winchester Oregon on a windy summer day. Watch the top of the sand dune on the right to see the sand blowing off the top at 1:59 and 3:04. The haze to the left of the dune is blowing sand. The dark areas of the dune were really soft and the jeep made 5 inch deep tracks in the sand that held shape enough to see the tire lug marks several minutes later. The two hills with trees on them in the background are 0.35 and 0.52 miles away and are almost invisible because of the fog and sand blowing in the wind. I had the jeep up on two wheels several times before I found these lines that were downhill in the soft areas and I could maintain enough speed to not get stuck and not feel like it was going to tip over (like when I missed a gear shift at 0:47.)
