C&TSRR Cascade Trestle & Rock Tunnel Plan
I have finished my plan working from my office. The next step is go to Osier and do a practice run watching the signal strengh. I will try and go to Osier this next week and fly from the last switchback before you get to the lunch facility at Osier. This should tell us if plan A is going to work.

I absolutely love the idea Roger!! Hope the test goes according to plan.

I am still doing some tests here in Chama. Probably be ready to go to Osier and do my first test on Monday.

Hi Roger,
I'm wondering how you plan to get to the vantage point that you'll use for the Rock Tunnel flight. The vantage point for that flight appears to be south of the river and I don't know much about access to that area along the river. Is there a usable forest road for access from the south or west or would you drive or hike in from Osier? I think I see a forest road on the map in your post but I haven't explored that territory.
I hope your test flight to Cascade Trestle goes well.

There is a road that goes down behind the Lunch building at Osier. Will will ford the river and pick up the road on the other side.
