Homing Pole' Due to the massive land area of the dunes and the possibility of becoming lost, a candy-stripe- d pole,- lsnown as the "Homing Pole" was Installed prior to Easter of 1968. Its purpose is to aid those lost in finding their way back to the camp site. Total acreage of the Little Sahara complex is around 100,000 acres. The immediate development area is about 400 acres. Also of interest is the movement of the sand to the north. The sand is moving at the rate of approximately 15 feet every 10 years. ; Along the shorelines of Old Lake Bonneville are areas of massive bars and deltas which are composed largely of sand. These areas are the source of the broad train of dunes in the "Little Sahara" area. The northeasterly course of the sand dunes Indicates the prevalence of southwesterly winds during prehistoric as well as present times. On a typical day, when this writer visited the dunes, some 300 people were present in the campsite and playing on the dunes, however, the nature of the dunes and the campsites provide seclusion for each of the groups, an advantage that few campsites can offer. If you antcipate a visit to the Sand Dunes be sure to include ample water in your camping suppies. Recognizing the potential of this area as a tourist attraction, showing respect for the faciities that have been in stalled, help to maintain the park in a clean condition and please do not cut the cedar trees. - Sales-Servic- Think of Fire Before It Starts UTAH COUNTY FIRE EXT.
