Dawg Days of August - Day 1

North Site - Pawnee Grasslands

Saturday August 3rd, 2019

Launch Summary

Thanks to Jack Matthews for towing both ways and to Jon Skuba for taking the helm and orchestrating the launch weekend.  Prairie definately showing signs of crisping and yet, still viable and fresh.  

Weather Conditions

I wasn't there but I'm sure it was warm to hot, with mild winds and probably a heavy afternoon shower or two.

All launch events will be conducted using nationally approved/accepted range safety practices. The launching of rockets on NFS land is normally prohibited under a Forest Service Region 2 fire regulation. The issuance of NCR’s permit allows launches to take place by exempting the Holder from that regulation for approved launch events only. All launches, other than those conducted by the Holder during approved launch events, are outside the scope of this permit and are prohibited by Forest Service regulations.
