Squeaking breaks.....

So I took my 11yr. old niece and Bro-in-law oryx hunting this past Sunday and after a hour or two on dusty dirt roads my breaks started squeaking REALLY bad when I would stop. This is ESPECIALLY bad because hunting these animals is mostly road hunting until you see some and stop quick, get out and shoot one. Now maybe the oryx already hear the loud diesel, but the squealing breaks gets them even more on edge I think. Is there any way to stop the squeaking from all the dust and dirt? As soon as I got back on pavement, got up to 75MPH, and stopped a few times they were back to normal. My little ranger never did that... Any ideas? Thanks!

Well, no luck this past sunday. We did see more then we had ever seen wich was good, but it just didn't work out. And before anyone asks what a oryx is, here is a pic of the VERY tasty critters I took a while back. This is a young one....

Wow, beautiful animal. Only thing I can say is the dust is accumilating around your rotor and brakes, damage to the dust sheilds would be my guess.. Reps for the cool pic..Whitetails here..
