dunlap is in the sierras... high clouds are pretty likely and the sierras do wierd things in otherwise "normal" patterns.

Torrey has been consistently flyable, it seems.

Unfortunately Torrey is a no go for me. Maybe some of the sites in the Tehachapi area? Might give some of the locals there a call.

Yesterday actually looked pretty good along the east Sierra and desert near Ridgecrest. Garlock would probably have been good...today looks like a little more high clouds and higher level west winds though and probably not worth the drive up there.


Man...this is driving me nuts.

We're paying for all the good times we had during winter months.

You guys should head out to Laguna or Horse. At least were you guys live you see the sun once in a while. But "it's always darkest before the dawn".

Why not Garlock? Granted, the winds look a little problematic this weekend, but that, of course, isn't always the case.

Sunday looks like a possible Garlock day if anyone is interested (and has a 4x4...wife has mine and is in Mississippi). I can probably scare up a driver. Will provide beer.
