The drop from the top of the dune to the water was like a black diamond ski slope. There were warning signs that if you went down to the water, the only way back was to climb that steep, steep dune. With sand like that, climbing is two steps up and one step sliding back down. Takes a lot of effort to get back up. The day we were there, it was close to 100F. No way I was going any closer to the edge of that and risking a slide down.
