Crestline Soaring Society

Big days! Real strong lift. The thermals had sharp edges. Wed. I launched at 12:30 and Thurs. I took off at 12:20. Wed the corner house themal worked good for me. I had an hour and 15 min of some serious rock and roll flying. I got up to 8613' msl. Thurs. I got to the house thermal and then sank out. I crossed over to the right side of the E bowl and worked that spine down, (figuring I was headed for the lz), until I caught one coming up the spine. I rode that to 5K msl, over the ranches. Today, it wasn't so rough. Still pretty strong. I got up to a little over 9K. Got pretty chilly up there after a while. I came down and landed after 2 hours and 30 minutes. Wind in the LZ was down,(west), at 12-17 mph. Made for an easy landing.
Aside from the flying report, I want to seriously thank the Sylmar flying club for their assistance with the new LZ. Thank you, thank you.
