Got in late from Trapeze on Friday night.

Will check updates in the morning--either Daniel's, Ridgely, or towing with Little Slugger.

Will post at 9:30am on Saturday.

Nice day today. Light cycles and low cloudbase of maybe 4-5k. The sky constantly cycled and cirrus shaded things at times. I could only get to 3200 ft. Flew 2 hours and landed in stanardsville.

Where in Stanardsville did you land Matt? I've been thinking of an XC trip to the Early Mountain Winery off of Rt. 230 from Daniels for years. Bacil

Across from the school behind the gas station in a large field. Walked to Sal's for pizza beer.

I'd love to fly to Early Mountain with you. Yesterday conditions were too light/shaded. I almost made it there with 1 thermal last weekend.
