it will be cold (38F). wind direction is good (NW). wind velocity is on the strong side, but given woodstock factor, it may be doable.
Thoughts?

Walt I am afraid that the road to launch is most likely still closed. The snow on the windward side of the mountain takes a long time to melt since it faces NW, and with the large amount of snow that fell a month ago, I highly doubt that the road has been reopened. You can call a number at VDOT and ask if the Woodstock Tower Road is open. Good luck. Bacil
