Keep it between the lines and watch out for trees!


One of the more unique features of the Oregon sand dunes are the deep, steep “tree holes” that develop around the edges of the dunes where the sand meets the tree line. Courageous riders often venture into these “shoots” despite not being able to see the bottom or even if there is room to turn around. This video is a great representation of the crazy network of trails and challenging hills that exist right along the outer edges of the dunes.

Growing up in Oregon, most of Seth's involvement in the powersports world was limited to what he saw in magazines and videos. Following a brief stint in the corporate world, Seth took a flying leap (literally) and moved to California to pursue a career in freestyle motocross. Though short lived, the opportunity immersed him in the industry and is now a well-established off-road writer.
