"I made the mistake of going out there for some practice and checking out the range conditions. County roads are in good dry shape. VERY muddy around the gate area. Main road is muddy in spots. Silhouette parking lot is a disaster of mud as is the road to the targets/berms. All berms are muddy at the rails, still much snow around them. Definitely a slipping situation. The area got that same 6-7 inches of snow last Friday, too. The firing line is icy in spots. SB side firing line is all iced over. The snow melt there has been slow this week with continued cold weather resulting in plenty of mud.
Got
in two hours of shooting before all hell broke loose with that
predicted SE wind cold front at noon. Went from 4-6 mph and 45F to 35
mph and 37F in a few minutes. Major assault by the tumbleweeds on the
firing line. Had to hit the car wash on the way home. We would have
to be crazy to shoot this weekend.
Based on the
solid poor weather forecast for the weekend, I am CANCELING our match
as of right now. I already got it on the CRC website as canceled. I
will update the silhouette blog sometime today to show canceled. Sorry
guys. Pass the word around to the HP shooters."
