Bittinger 2nw Valley

Comparison of the 3 stations within the Valley. All in all they are falling in to line as expected. Bittinger 2nw Valley Experimental Spot #2 should cool off under less than optimal conditions before the other 2 sites and holding better, but under optimal conditions ot will not cool as much as the other 2 sites.
