Great Sand Dunes National Park

North America's tallest sand dunes rise over 750 feet high against the western slope of the Sangre de Cristo Range which forms the eastern boundary of Colorado's "mysterious" San Luis Valley. This newest of the US National Parks contains over 30 square miles of equally mysterious sand dunes.
