Dickey Ridge Monday?

Post by Joe Schad »

Looks like it might be a Dickey Ridge day Monday. Could also be a Woodstock day but I am leaning toward Dickey Ridge.

It was light but there were nice launch cycles. It was a bit up and down at the start with very small thermals but if you made the really tight you would go up. Figured that out after loosing it and heading out to the lz. Kept hold of won that got me to 3000 over and drifting to Front Royal. Not much after that as things darkened up. I landed by the river to the east of he new bridge on Rt 522/55.
