...will be volunteers at the Natural Bridges Natl. Monument during March and April. I've been thinking of bringing the Maule out(from Missouri) then and keeping it at the Blanding airport. This sounds like a good excuse. Now a little wind doesn't bother me....but if Mar/Apr are typically extremely windy....then it might not be worth the effort. I'll keep seeing what developes.
But, I'd bring it. Couple good days would make it all worth while, and in that period of time, you will have ATLEAST,some good days. Then you'll be hooked .
