Looks like things might clear up enough Saturday afternoon to get some flying in. Anybody else interested?

If it is going to be flyable, I am in.

Not sure how much to trust the forecast after yesterday. Looks like it could be light, but the dew point is low, so that might indicate chance for lots of thermal activity if the sun can get through. I'm hopeful for the mid-afternoon, but will try to arrive early. Bring your rabbit's foot.

Looking at a late arrival. A front looks to be coming through early afternoon.

Unless something changes in the morning, I plan to be there around 1100.

Forecast is slightly diminished, but looks like there could be a nice window in the middle of the day. ETA launch around 11am.

Was hoping for a repeat of Thursday, but no dice. Forecasted velocity was never realized. We saw a few good cycles pass through, but nothing soarable. As we waited, the wind switched mostly North. Weak thermals rolled through to make it launchable. PGs took some sleds and by 3pm I was tired of waiting and sledded down to the car. Found some lift over the finger and got a few extra seconds. @#$5 vultures make it look so easy Anyway, fun day hanging out with people on the mountain. The red buds are really pretty on the drive to/from.
