North East Winter Fun 22/23

Looks like VFR weather with good visability and a high overcast. Surface wind forecast for Twitchel Lake area tomorrow afternoon SSW 10-15K.

Does the "anchorage" happen to be on the SE shore of the lake?

Thanks everyone, little breezy :wink: I was doing 134mph on downwind, but 18 planes from 4 different states enjoyed a fun February day

THAT ...... was a fun day! Thanks to everyone involved. No toilet paper today because it would have to have been released 1.5 miles upwind and you can't see white paper against an overcast very well from the ground.
 
Would have been there and sorry to miss it, but my daughter took precedent over flying this weekend. Next time.

Airborne at 6 am this morning to play in the fresh powder, supposed to be 40 degrees here all next week. 2 feet deep with a little crust in the middle, plane sits up on top pretty good. Probably the best conditions we’re going to get here in Maine this winter.

Had a 67 skidoo. A 10 mile ride was a good day on that thing. Worked on it all week to get it ready for the next weekend. Always carried plenty of tools on each ride. Would also bring my two young sons on most rides.

Fred is all ready for us at South Lake for 1pm Saturday. Looks like we are supposed to get about 4" tonight and quit around 9am. Only lite snow so still may try saphouse around 9am

Glenn
 
Hey, Glenn

With the expected snowfall tonight, I'm guessing South lake will be skis only.

I can't get off home base with my wheel replacement skis, so the PA-11 will be on 800x4 wheels.
 
Hat trick riding today

No go today for most of us, doing it again on Sunday at South lake.
Plan is Gavin's farm strip for breakfast then up to South lake for lunch
