Anyone flying Friday Dec 26?

Post by dfjon »

Hi all, this is Dan from Chicago. (I've flown Daniel's and Edith's with Matt and some of you before.)
I'll be in Maryland again this year for Christmas. I have a free day on Friday December 26th and I'm thinking I should bring my PG gear. So far the weather looks sunny/partly cloudy and 52, winds from the south at 8 mph.
Maybe Daniel's then?
Is anyone interested?
Thanks
Dan

Do these sites require USHPGA membership for land owner and insurance purposes?

Just sayin...

Hi Doug, sounds good. Let's check back here during the week for updates. I'll probably text you the night before to verify.
The weather still looks good so far.

Is anyone else interested?

Doug and everyone, the forecast for Friday is looking closer to 3-5 mph now. Looks like it would just be a sled ride at Daniel's and not enough to ridge soar.
I don't think it's worth travelling with my gear and then the long drive just for a sled ride, so I will sit this one out.
If you still decide to fly, I hope you can find some thermals.

Still way too early to call Daniels but the forecast actually looks favorable. With nearly a 20 degree spread in temps it could be quite good in the afternoon with a base forecast of 7 gusting 10mph. Too far for me to come from Philly but I hope you guys get some.
