Atlas Site - Pawnee Grasslands Saturday January 3rd, 2026 Launch Summary
HAPPY NEW YEAR! 1st approved launch event for 2026. Special treat - 5 person fire crew from the Eldorado National Forest in California came out to watch/babysit our operations. Pawnee remains incredibly dry due to prolonged drought and late summer rains that produced a great crop of feed for the ranchers and fuel for wildfires. CSU Ram Team on site for Certifications and USLI Sub-scale flight. 24 different fliers put up 47 flights, 19 Class One and 28 Class Two. Hoag Rocketry had six flights to Jon Skuba's five. And we're off and flying.....
Weather Conditions
Incredible winter day on the prairie. Super mild winds from the south, 3 to 8 mph, clear skies and warm sunshine. Hard to believe it got to 55 degrees.
