NBAW (Johnson Creek JUNE 16-19, 2016)

Still holding up in MacCall waiting for better weather. Looks like it's going to be Friday.

If anyone else is waiting the wx out in McCall lets do lunch. Five. Zero. 37. Two. 0. One. Nine. 17
Good thing being the middle of the week motels are readily available and cheap.
Cheers Rob

How does it look for VFR arrival into McCall from Boise? Can you go vfr around the northwest of the pass west of cascade?

Don't mess with the wx. It never turns out good. Friday is a sure bet. Remember, they always pick up the bodies in the sun.
