Flying Katydid Tuesday

[Wings-Aron Lantz]

All you Flyers out there...

There may be a good possibility of flying Katydid tomorrow (Tuesday).

I'm definitely interested in this semi rare opportunity!

Bill V. is looking at it as well.

I'm gonna look at the forecast first thing in the AM and decide.

I've never flown there, Bill seems optimistic at this point for HG and PG.

I’m interested, I’ve only flown there once.  The road up was a little too much for my car so if I go I will need a ride up.  Let’s see what the weather looks like in the morning.

It does look OK. Winds aloft a little stiff. Not sure about road access. Thinkin' 'bout it.

I got ahold of Jim K, he was going to contact the landowner.  Jim K. may or may not show up today to fly.

IF road passable, what ETA @ LZ 4 U?

[Bill Vickery]

I'm up for a look see trip and loaded.

Mountain tops still have some white on them here so last pitch may be interesting, but it faces southern sun.  Crossing their yard to get to bottom of road may be soft too.

Still feel like it may be worth it depending on access, keeping my rut post in mind.

I will come take a look as well.  Worst thing that happens is it’s a little strong for PG and I drive one of your trucks back down the hill.

Stronger than expected.  A bit rowdy, not too bad.  Went more westerly.  Torn lift and winds got stronger quickly at just 700'.  Kinda had enough after only 20+ minutes, but felt good to get that first flight in.

Land owners glad to see us.

Road up has just a few washout spots, but was surprisingly dry.  

Massive LZ this time of year.
