Great Desert of RI
« on: May 17, 2011, 07:42:41 PM »
You guys have probably all been, but if you haven't it's definitely a site worth seeing.  It's called the Great Desert of RI. I believe it use to be an old gravel pit.

so i went to the location u described off rt 95. i found a spot that seems to match the photos u posted, but it didnt impress me. if u take exit 6 onto hopkins hill rd, there is a much bigger spot with alot more sand dunes

Yeah there are actually two "deserts".   We were at the larger one.   We also tried getting my friends truck in there, but they blocked off the entrances pretty good.

check out the old Chevron land in East providence.  That site could be more interesting.  It's just right off the bike path, its fun to explore during the day.

I'll try and find the pictures.
