Hanging out 30 miles north of Cheyenne

Filed under: chase mode updates — Mike U @ 2:48 pm

I found a nice high spot just off the interstate at interchange #39
about 30 miles north of Cheyenne. I think I’m in about as good an
area as one can be with east southeast winds , a moisture cu field to
my south through east-southeast…and developing updraft towers over
the mountains to my west through southwest. I have a great view to
the northwest at Laramie Peak, too, where there’s another cluster of
agitated cumulus over the 10,000 foot peak.

  1. Hi Mike!

    It’s a quiet day here in Indy and saw you on spotternetwork. Looks like you are in a good place today. I think I have stopped before at that spot. Good luck today!

    BTW, if you are on the west side of I-25 and you are pretty close to where I have stopped before it sounds like, you might see what looks like a missile sticking out of the ground (large white cone shaped object). That is the Vortac (navigation beacon) for cross-country traffic.
