    Good hang glider flying Tuesday, 4-20-21. Breezier than expected, soarable before Noon. Cool but not cold.
    Around 2 PM I was looking for smooth air in the middle of Devil Canyon to check airspeeds and climbed to Billboard without actually trying. Turbulent near the LZ most of the afternoon.

    So you opened the tie-down cover and the coiled rope sprang to life?
    Will it also stop the dogs from marking their territory on your sail in time?
