The AAR should be up soon.

Persistent Students with great attitudes who worked on their skills in the cold and wind.

Challenging conditions. Threatening clouds all day. Wind steady  at @ 25mph with gusts to 48 mph on Sunday.

Toss in some drizzle and rain and it was a nice change of pace from hot and sunny.

Ken,

Fortunately the heavy rain held off till after hours and there was just enough drizzle to keep the dust down.

Other wise we would have been shooting in a sand storm.

We've had a Dust Devil, visit a previous shoot. Think low speed tornado with 40-50 mph winds.

Scatters everything not tied down pretty good.

But Riflemen persist, and the event continued after the clean up was done.

Weather always seems to play a role in Appleseed events.

It was a shame we can't get KD shooting on this range. It would have been excellent practice doping the wind.

It was so bad the RSO's left early each day and I think the F-class folks only popped a few rounds and then departed.
