I live on the Gulf Coast, and we have bright white squeaky sand. I always wondered why it squeaked.

[@Bob_Adkins]

When I was a youngster, there were several small rivers and creeks in my area that had clear water and large, dry, blindingly white sand bars in the turns. We could easily identify the sand bars that would squeak (we called it "barking" because it sounded like a seal vocalizing). We instinctively knew why it squeaked, the grains were clean, dry, and mostly round quartz. We could also see a slight electric glow on dark nights, and we thought the piezo action also had something to do with the sound.

[@throughcolouredglasses9300]

Wait *what*?? Electric glow? I am so intrigued, would you mind elaborating for someone who grew up in the city and has never seen a desert in real life?

[@Bob_Adkins]

@@throughcolouredglasses9300 Well, this was in Louisiana, not even close to being a desert. The sand must be clean, of pretty uniform size, and very white, indicating its mostly quartz. When shuffling our feet vigorously in the sand, we got the noise and a very faint glow (on a dark night) obviously caused by the piezo effect. I assumed it was at least partly responsible for the squeaking sound. I hope that helps!

You've made an amazing production here. Huge props to you!
