Landsailing in Colorado presents some interesting challenges, as there are no large dry lakes or wide beaches to sail.  Most sailing is done on parking lots, hoping not to get booted off by a security guard!  The wind also tends to come and go, so sailing is a very oppurtunistic adventure.
    The state of Wyoming has lots of wind.  West of Rawlins there are several dry lakes, two of which we have sailed.  The first one is close to Wamsutter.  Unnamed on the map, we nicknamed it "Wahu". It has a fast surface, with a scattering of vegetation.  The small bushes add a new dimension to sailing.  You weave your way through them, and then come into large open areas that were not initially visible.  Take a look at the pictures below.

If you are interested in more detailed info about these spots, drop me a note and I'll get back to you.
There are a couple more possible sites in the same general area.  We will keep looking!  If anyone knows of a spot, e-mail me and we'll check it out.
