Just west of Saint Anthony are the beautiful living sand dunes with dunes as high as 400 feet. 10,600 acres of clear, shifting white quartz make this a popular destination for dune buggy, snowmobile and sand skiing enthusiasts as well as a great place to just play in the sand!

Indian legend claims that in the days of old, a great battle was fought in this land of sagebrush and sand. Ten thousand warriors came together in a fierce battle that raged on for many moons. It lasted so long that the gods became angered and called the great wind which blew for weeks on end. The great winds caused the sands to rise and swallow the battling warriors. If you have the courage to open your soul to the spirits of those warriors, you will become a dune warrior. Then if you listen closely you will hear the battle cries of the ancient desert warriors in the wind.

It has been estimated that the sand dunes move approximately eight feet each year.
