Re: Box / Sunday
Dang, Rafael. I'm sorry to hear about your accident. I don't like Box in a southwest - it's just too freakin' far to the LZ to be messing around looking for lift on the north side of the canyon.

Miller Saturday?
Eric is interested in flying Miller tomorrow (Saturday) and I'm planning on driving. It looks like a nice monsoonal day, SE 7-10 all day long.
Anyone else interested?

Andy, You're right, it's not clear in the drawing that R-2303A is completey contained within R2303B and they overlap. R2303C is disjoint. I'll try to modify it so that that is clear. Your summary is exactly correct. There is currently a NOTAM out for Libby (KFHU) class D airspace hours for the next ...

Help Needed: SAHGA Site Risk Assessment and Mitigation plans
Hi, all As I mentioned in the meeting, I need help reviewing the Site Assessment and Mitigation Plans before submitting them to the USHPA. In particular, the Mustangs document may be funky, since I don't know the site. If someone with some site knowledge would review it, I'd be grateful. I need any ...

Miller work party
Still working on cleaning up fire damage at Miller Canyon. more details in members-only.
The road between the gate and the Miller launches could still use a work party in a couple of spots.
