Sand Hollow-St. George 4.7 sail, 85 liter rw board

[tomsmart]

Sand Blasted at Sand Hollow. On my way down to shoot the PAC 12 tourney in Las Vegas I looked at the forecast and saw it was supposed to blow around 18 at Sand Hollow. It was nuking from the north with gusts over 50. Should have rigged the 4.2, but of course, with the car crammed with gear the one mast I really needed was my 180. The sand was blowing so hard it made life difficult. The inside of my car is covered with a red silt and hope it doesn't screw up the cameras. A good baptism for the first ride of the year, not too cold after the initial dousing. Is there a good place to go near Vegas without heading all the way down towards Loughlin or up to Overton?
