The conditions were great today!
I managed to get super high where I was able to see Ed Levin from on top of Mission. I did not have a retrieve this day though, which made wanting to go far difficult.
What was interesting on this flight, was it was about an hour long. A little apprehensive due to having done a porosity test and know that my glider is on its last legs.
There were some great climbs, but, I found that trying to push north I was sinking out. I ran into another pilot who I thought looked like they could use the space, so, decided to try the saddle mountains again after it worked as few flights back. No luck though, sunk out here and the other pilot (who turned out to be Zak) had a great flight to head up and away.
