My thoughts and feelings on the subject: The dunes you ride are small and do not have that many visitors comparably. The folks in Oregon have to pay as well to use their dunes. Technically, if you are not camping there, you do not have to pay. Califonians seem to be kind retarded as a populus. The same people that are environmental activists are also the people driving the gigantic SUV's that get 4 mpg. On the same note these are also the people that mandate dune closures, but never leave their house on the weekend. I think it may all boil down to alot of dumb people with too much money. :baseball_innocent:
