I'll be at Daniel's this Saturday target noon launch by 2PM at most. It will be scorching and so far looks great for XC. Pilots needed!

The direction looks good for Daniels, SSW.
(though this far out, who knows?)
Will keep an eye on it, thanks for the heads up Bari!

Looks just a tad too light for HG at Daniel's today. I'm sure it might be possible to
find a thermal and get up... But with the light winds, the temp, and the long drive,
I can't work up much enthusiasm about the day. I hear that a big PG turnout is likely...

I agree. The PG'er numbers are the highest of the season. Though I think early in the AM it's more of DR then DM.
High Rock maybe? LoL

Anyone know how the PG crowd made out at Daniel's? I was trying to avert my eyes from some pretty amazing Q's that afternoon....
Re: Saturday May 21st, 2022 Daniel's Mountain
About 15 PG pilots showed up. Conditions were light, thermals were narrow and light too. Josh Mazza (did 75K) and Rick Marsh had the longest flights with a few others trailing right behind them on XC course. There were some new PG pilots and they stuck around the ridge and did multiple flights. Winds became progressively stronger during the day.

Dare I ask.... Did it hit 12+ at launch, in spite of the light forecast?progressively stronger

Don't think it did but here's ayvri track of Josh Mazza and Rick Marsh.
