Located a few miles from Stovepipe Wells and a short hike from the road, these are the tallest sand dunes in California and among the highest in North America, rising 680 feet above a dry lake bed. Formed by wind and sand from the Cottonwood Mountains, the sand dunes cover an area about three miles long by one mile wide.
Look closely and you'll see two people climbing them, one wearing red and one wearing black.
