Fri & Sat

Post by Joe Schad »

Would like to fly Friday and possibly Saturday.

Looks like a flight park day Friday (Blue Sky) but could be a good Dickey's day as well.

Saturday looks like a perfect Dickey's Day. My problem is that I need to be home by 5pm. I'll need a driver to make the 5pm hour.

By the way, Dickey's slot is way overgrown and needs work.

I am planning to go to Blue Sky this Fri (ETA noon)
I have never been at Dickey, but I would be interested in trying a new place.

We have permission to do some light pruning. We want to top some of the trees lower down and were supposed to have a site walkthrough with park rangers this summer to get approval for that and the other two SNP sites, but the meeting didn't happen and we're waiting for rescheduling.

Thanks Matt for the info on light pruning at Dickey Ridge. It is looking iffy for Dickey's today probably good tomorrow and I likely will not be able to get out Saturday.
