Where to Ride 8/17

Postby Craig Goudie » Thu Aug 17, 2006 8:05 am

Looks pretty windy today. AM 7.5 at Grantsville, and it'll be gusty. You
could stay there and wait for the PM switch to North wind. Or, you could
get gusty South wind at DC (or Pineview) from about 11 AM till about 3 PM. Sulfur should be in the 6.5 range all afternoon. And a Bonus
Kite board session at the South end of UL is likely after about 3 PM.

Tomorrow looks very Kiteable at UL.

I was thinking North this afternoon/evening, but you should wait till
you see the Bluffdale indicator go North. The front is kinda stalled and
occluded. If you have doubts, tomorrow should be better than today.
