Since we were car camping, hot and plentiful food was not an issue. Stews and chilis for night..with hearty breakfasts in the morning (eggs, veggies, lots of coffee!). For snacks, we took our normal trail food (cheese, jerky, chocolate, etc.)

Hope that helps!

I am sure it was cold. What kind of food (breakfast,lunch,dinner)did you guys bring. Just to get an idea… Thanks for your help.

Adrianna and I went there over Thanksgiving Weekend (late November). It was great!

What time of the year did you go to the dunes? I did go this past July and want to go during winter.

cheers,

I just wrote about Great Sand Dunes on my own blog (twoweekstotravel.com) I am dying to see it, seems like such an amazing place. I only recently discovered it when I was perusing the NPS website and I was really surprised at how amazing it seems, desert, couple with lakes and cool temperatures. You’re pictures certainly help show its beauty. Thanks!
