It is not only the driving winds that get your awning, but the unexpected gusts that come up when camped. I speak from personal experience. This was the Rally last Easter at Dove Springs.

This weekend up here is not going to be the greatest, a storm is coming, mostly in the form of winds. Rain is expected saturday afternoon and the snow level is expected to drop to about 3000' feet. Temps are 20 degrees colder than this time yesterday. If you do decide to camp, be sure to place the rig into the wind and hang on....
