I think the forecast looks great on Tuesday but on the chilly side. Hoping that I can persuade myself to go!

It was overcast at 1230 when we got up to launch. Wind was straight in at about 5 mph. By the time I got set up, the clouds started to break open a bit and the wind picked up to about 7 to 15 mph. I launched and got rocketed up to about 1000' over launch but unfortunately, the base was not too far above that.
The wind at the LZ was about 5 mph or so from WNW and had a nice landing into the wind.

Huge thank-you to Gary for coming out for site briefing and help at launch.
