Can We Find STAR DUNE? The Tallest Dune in North America | Great Sand Dunes National Park

[@joshuap7043]

That star time lapse though!!

[@This_gonna_be_good_I_know_it]

Yup. GSD was designated as an International Dark Sky Park. One of the darkest places in America with pretty much zero light pollution at a decently high elevation.

Water shoes. Goggles. Sun screen. Jus' sayin'.

Nice video, y'all! Considering the hike for next week and this was informative and fun. Happy travels out there.

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Thank you! We thoroughly enjoyed this unique experience. Check out the UFO Tower if you are in the area.

My son and I have hiked to high dune and star dune! We live in Colorado and try and make it to Sand dunes National Park at least once a year. We are planning on taking our horses this spring and riding the trail east of the dunes that goes to the base of the mountains there. When you get back to Colorado, look me up and we will get take you there horseback!

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

That would be amazing! Although we are on the other side of the world right now, Colorado will always be a place we return to. We will let you know!

Ive camped at this park! The dunes are masive and look like they go on forever once up on them! The tallest peaks of sand dunes is actually 1000ft elevation however the giant dunes all look about the same size once your up on them. The giant rocky mountains surrounding the dunes are almost 13000ft!

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

It was so hard trying to find the tallest dune! Crazy cool surrounding area. Colorado never disappoints!

[@MrPolloncito]

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing. Where is that BLM land located at?

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Right outside the main entrance.

What did y’all use for the Star time lapse?

[@SOSASATSUNRISE]

Settings are never exact but we use the Rokinon 12mm f2.0 for any night time lapse, attached to our a6500. Very inexpensive lens and great for us who are just beginning to learn astrophotography.

Just don’t run out of water 😉

[@motomaniac-cw9vy]

They need to let utv's ride here

[@JammyTom]

It would destroy the dunes

[@motomaniac-cw9vy]

@@JammyTom it would not. Sand dunes are driven on by motor vehicles all over the world lol. These don't even get used hardly
