That is good to know. Of course you are aware that there are lots of other ways to get to the Atlas Site, for the March launch, which will be the last time we are at the Atlas Site until November, as scheduled. You can always take 392 thru Windsor and take it all the way to Briggsdale. TL on 14, going west and the gate should be about two miles on the right.

Bear, Remember, there are 4 offramps in Briggsdale. You take the third one. It is marked 'BRIGGSDALE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT'. Go past the terminal and turn left at the roundabout. You can see the launch site from there! 🙄
Or just follow the marked Detour route and enjoy the scenic journey.
Tim, thanks for the reminder, in my haste, I forgot to mention those important details. I understand that BIA (Briggsdale International Airport) has been having financial difficulties in these difficult times, so they are selling space in the control tower. So besides being the control tower for the airfield, it is also the Briggsdale National Forest Fire Lookout tower. They are also considering putting a restaurant in at the top for the tremendous view.
Hwy 14 is limited to one lane alternating thru Monday thru Friday only. ( I dont usually drive it on weekends) In June it will close completely for 30 days.
