Field conditions?

[Hawkrock]

So what does the road look like? Has anybody tried to get in yet this year?

I got stuck for 45 minutes today. Dimitry and Dave are the only reason I got out. The road is rough. Large ruts small cars take a beating. You can drive about 200m in and when the road curves do not go farther. We are pitting from the road. Bring rubber boots it is very muddy

Field is now closed till the weather dries it up. We have no need to ruin ower fantastic facility. So till it drys up I will be putting a differant lock on the gate till futher notice.

Any ideas how long the field will be closed?

[travco7373]

The road in is starting to dry out. The weather will deside how long till we open the road. At this point in time it is comming along very nice come on weather!!!! I hope it will be a week or 2 but we MUST wait for the place to dry up. there is no reason to make a bunch of ruts out there. Just 1 or 2 more weeks I know its hard and we all want to fly BUT!!!!!

I also must state the fact that if we are not flying at the flight line in the yard and there is a problem we will not be covered by MAAC. I am not sure that the risk is worth more than the reward.
