Take off
TO .... able to get off in the conditions from half way point
Light but thermic
Alex Colbeck .... distinctive and always one of the first off!
Alastair Wolf scratching near TO
Look at that sky developing .... streeting from the Lakes
Some Niviuk thingy
Off and up .... good timing. Looking down on TO from above High Cap.
About 7K down the range and looking back. Cluster of glider over High Cap. Other (barely visible) below. Good very strong (8 up) to base here ... after roughing the lower slopes ... was I glad to be away from the rocks and bracken!
Someone behind Dufton Pike. I moved a hundred yards and went to base ..... he didn't I think. Sure I'll be put right.
Searching for Appleby upwind. Glider upwind heading out.
Do I have to go upwind?
Yep ..... still above and in one piece.
Appleby in the distance about 5k upwind. Excellent glide out with light lift/sink
Skirting the Golf Club
Floating down the A66 in light lift .... but not gaining much height!
