sand lake, florence, winchester bay (windy bay), coos bay... sand lake sucks.. i think of it more as a giant cat box but its always good for a day run (its closer to me then the rest) florence is wicked.. never wheeled there but ride my quad there often an i think my fav has to be winchester.. dont really know why, just every time iv been down there the sands been super smooth and not to many people.

The sand at the Christmas Valley dunes is super fine which=super soft, but still lots of fun. Way less traffic in "the Valley" but overall a lot smaller riding/driving area, but still plenty to explore. What I also like about the Valley is there are so many other cool places to explore, like Crack in the Ground, Fort Rock, Hole in the Ground, Derricks Cave etc. If you're into exploring and smaller crowds I'd go there.
