Chehalem? (and a Newberg webcam link)

[Neil Clark]

I'm probably going to Newberg around noon.  Anyone else have plans?

Here's a useful webcam link in Newberg.  It captures the east end of the ridge, so you can get an idea if cloudbase is above the ridge.  And there's a wind indicator, showing possibly good strength and direction.

Gregg and I are interested but it looks too strong.  Got skunked at Chehalem by strong winds just the other day.  Would you mind giving me a call at (503)828-6689 if its flyable - I'm not far away. Thanks.

Will do, Dave.  I should get there about noon.  Other hangs have gone to Petersons.

Blowing 30-35 mph at PB. 4 hangs are waiting at launch.

I got my first skunked of 2017 today at Peterson. Winds were blowing 30-45mph. Everybody left already.

Getting skunked might have been the better decision, given how sketchy my launch was.  Quite turbulent!  Bit of a workout once up too.  Some nice lift here and there, but any more than three or four circles and I'd have been going OTB with no other option.  Thanks for the help on launch, John!  Thanks for the ride back up, Greg and Rob!
