Alaska Ancorage Data [RE-wrenches]

[Todd Cory, Mt. Shasta Energy Services]

Hi Darryl,

Interesting timing for your wrench list message as I just got back from a 11 day
working trip to Alaska to build an off grid system on a remote island down on
the Keni peninsula. We has a similar situation with ~50' Birch trees blocking
solar access. We put the rack on a 42' 4" pole anchored at the gable end of the
house. Some other homes have wind systems, but mostly in the winter it is a pure
generator/battery/inverter system.

Have fun, and dress warm. There was 6" of snow in Anchorage when I flew out on
Sunday!

Todd
