Field Report - Friday 11-00am
Western end of strip is unserviceable with numerous areas with surface water of varying depths.
Eastern end is damp to soggy but usable.
The driveway is firm but slippery and will easily chop up if a large number of vehicles enter.
In short Saturday should be OK for hand launched aircraft or STOL type using the eastern end only as the water on the west will not be dispersed by then. Driving in will need to be assessed on the day.
