We will travel from Black Bear on I-15, turn off to Hurricane, then travel to the Apple Valley Chevron station for a restroom break. We will then travel through Hildale/Colorado City and turn onto Cane Beds Road passing by Coral Sands State Park, swinging around to the east side of the dunes and park at a large lot before entering the sandy road. From the parking lot to the site we follow a BLM constructed trail 170 feet down to the site itself which is beautifully managed by the BLM. we will take our time in coming up to the vehicles. We should return to St George between 3pm and 4pm.
