Man John: I wish I could return to King-Mountain. But for the Time being, I am not flying my Predator. So have a great time at King.

Is the road rebuilt yet? It was pretty messed up from the rain this spring.

HI,
Thinking of heading up with a couple other pilots from the Reno/Tahoe. Can anybody give an update on the road to launch washout conditions? Would like to know be for making the long drive up...
