Today was the “sweet spot” for conditions: Enough wind but not too much, plenty of thermals but not too rough. I got 3 hours and up to 5500′, landing at sunset. Lots of pilots in the air, I will guess at 20 in flight at the same time. The air was unusually clear. Conditions also look favorable tomorrow (Wed Sep 15).
Caught a casino thermal for a 700′ gain.![IMG_1745](https://crestlinesoaring.org/wp-content/uploads/hm_bbpui/13753/kksn0hlkdo2weu7l1u9bkst9ezbt2pbi.jpg)
