Launch preparation at the MA2 site.

    

    

FINAL DESCENT
One half mile from our position, across the Neosho river!


The "Three Forks Ranch" manager
takes us to within .8 miles of landing.


The ever watchful eye of nature!


We're close!
Is that a new dance step or a pesky bug?


Holy cow balloon man! We don't have to climb a tree!
