I'm from Coos Bay. Make sure you always know what is on the other side of the hill. There are a lot of drifts with lakes at the bottom and no place to turn around. Drop the air pressure to a max of 10 (I have seen guys run as low as 3psi - but you have a greater risk of breaking a bead). Don't forget to get a flag. The flag must be a minimum of 9' from the ground. If you go on a busy weekend, take extra precausion. I can't tell you how many times I've seen a nice rig with a huge dent in the side from a wheeler jumping a drift and landing on the door of someones truck.

The dunes are a plast! I've never taken my truck there, but I've spent just about every day after school and every day durning the summer at Horsfal. The dunes are stepper the further north you go. I personally like the areas between Coos Bay and Hauser best.
