Default Was Parowan a dry contest this year?

Bob --

The field elevation is 5932 feet, and launches on 04 more often than
not have a slight tail wind. Launching 50-something gliders in those
conditions is a lot easier when the gliders are dry. As is pushing the
glider a mile down to 22 if the launch direction has to be changed.
