So as we were hiking out, we saw two guys hiking back to their car with overnight packs. While we were sitting on the highest dune, one person came up toward the dunes. The ascended part way up the next dune over, bent down, and turned back. The car we had seen earlier was still there. We guessed one of them had left something - maybe the car keys! - but by memory or GPS track was able to come back and find it. That's a long round trip to pick up your lost article!
I'm currently in SW Utah. Been here a week. Once my trip is over next week, I'll post a longer trip report. But nothing NEARLY as energetic as yours, you really pack in the action!
Whom did you rent from in LV?
I rented from Enterprise. When I was camped the night before, I saw a couple of headlamps coming down from the dunes. It does seem they are popular. Perhaps it's because of all the flowers in the Panamint Valley?
I write long reports because memory fades a lot of details out that I'd like to be able to go back to--especially when I'm too old to do this anymore.
