For non-flying fun with pilots, friends, and family.
Ski trips, Ethiopean-nights, movies, biking, climbing... All that fun stuff you can't do in the sky.

Traction Kiting at Lakeview

"High Rock" Bob Gillisse sent me this link of a video he took this summer.

I've been practicing a bunch lately with my new 5-meter kite - waiting for the snow.

Hi Sparky,

Nice kite.

Karen and I were out kiting and teaching Judy-Judy to kite on Saturday. I got lifted of my feet twice with my 3.6 M kite.

A photographer visited us a few days ago while Colton and I were flying traction kites in Elk meadow.

It was 70 degrees two days ago. This morning it was 7 degrees, Elk meadow had about 4" of fresh snow, and the skiing was great.
