Click on the photo above to see a slide show of a little jaunt we made to Bruneau Dunes State Park, which is about 18 miles south of Mountain Home, ID. These dunes are the tallest in the U.S. They don't cover a large area, but they are impressive. They were formed by the prevailing winds acting on sand in what amounts to a circular shaped valley formed by the Snake River.
In order, the photos are:

Of course, photos never do justice to landscapes, but we were pretty impressed. Enjoy.
