Slight lean to the left off the pad and over the soccer parking area to 1183'. Began to drift west on recovery and everyone thought it was a goner. I started walking toward Rip Rap Road, fully expecting it to cross into the trees near the river, but it dropped at the edge of the baseball field just back from the road. ARC team was not so lucky and recovered on the road. They were lucky in that none of the cars that passed hit it and I recovered both rockets.

Actual Altitude: 1,183 Feet
