Wildwood Info and meet up 1/14-1/17

I am thinking of heading to Wildwood the weekend of 1/14- 1/17. Need some help as to what places are open this time of year? Where can i find the Tide reports and lastily the best recommended wind forcast for the different locations- ie north beach vs wildwood crest. Also anybody want to join me, would definetly make the weekend better.

Hey Scott! On this site located about 3/4 of the way down the page you will find Wildwood Crest Click and then set the dates. Looks to be low tides late morning. We usually stay at the Days Inn Located almost across the street from the convention center. Open year round @ about $67 a night.

Tide data here

General set up goes like this:

Wind blowing SE and NW we'll set up right off the shore from the pier which is located off E Crocus
Winds blowing NE SW We'll head up to E 1st Ave. and park along the wall.

We'll watch the weather, a bunch of people will be going to the Tug Hill event that weekend too.

@todd- I was thinking of Tug hill as well but 10 hr drive( + really cold) and not sure about the knee- will know more this week going back country tele sking tommorrow- still am afraid of being lofted and the impact upon landing.

@weld- How is your shoulder? and when do you xpect to be able to fly again?
