Condition 1!!!!

May 31, 2006, today was our first "Condition 1" of the season. This means that either the wind, visibility or temperature (without wind) were extreme enough for this to be called. This mornings Condition 1 was based on wind (greater than 75 knots) & visibility (less than 100 feet). What happens is everything stops, you stay where you are and if you must go somewhere you clip yourself to the ropes. I walked from where I live to the main building this morning while attached to the rope. Much like a giant dog run! Very excting times on ice.
