So the jack ass that originally bought it and put up a barb wire fence around his portion of the dunes is gone?

Got family in Kermit and friends in monahans    The dunes are fun and the place is huge.  We figure about 6500 acres from using google earth.    We usually stay on a pump jack spot or the place back by the pipeline when we go.

Never been there, I did not realize it was that much area.  6500 acres really?

Let me know and I'll give my buddy a heads up.  A seasoned tour guide is highly suggested.  Aside from Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends, the place is pretty desolate.

its off 115 a couple miles NE of town.  The pay spot to park/camp is further NE down 115, maybe a mile or so.  The pump jacks I park at are along off FM 874

I dont know what is going on with the pics in my post showing Kermit and Waynoka on the same zoom, here is the pic:
