I going to try to put a dent in your lead on this one, This one looks like its going to have a hard time getting well into the foothills as it stands right now.
An elevated board is not ideal in windy conditions but is effective when there is no wind, The ground board works well in most all conditions except extremely windy conditions which we see here being close to the coast that you have to take 6 measurements at times to avg it out.
