Tough weekend at Rosebud match

[Tony Gauthier]

Got to the range after a 3 hour drive, unloaded all the gear, got the trailer set up etc.in the rain. We set up the frames and backers etc., in the rain. Spent a sleepless night because the rain kept pounding down. Up at 5 am had breakfast, rain still pounding down. Opened the gate to the range and headed down the road to see if the creek had rissen, this is what I saw;

Everyone was packed up and out of there before the road left also.

Thats too bad Tony, kinda puts a damper on the shooting. Just as well I stayed home. How bad is the road damage?

I am going out this afternoon, but doubt there is a road left. I know the baracade was put up shortly after we got out. Would have stayed but none of us had enough components for a two week stay. Almost as important in our decision to get out we only had 2 days of food along. If the road is gone we may be looking at the whole summer before it is fixed. Will depend on how many roads are lost to this lousy rain!
The Albertans that went to the super shoot are the only ones that got to shoot this weekend.
