50 Miles Gin Tribe + Impress 3
Posted on April 09 2012
Great flight today from short divide. Launched at 2pm from steeds landed 3 hours later in Grace, ID. 50 miles. Winds aloft were about 15 mph. Headed over the back from sd at about 8600 ft. Here's the stats: max alt 12250 lift 1000 fpm sink 1100 fpm Got a bit crazy in the valley were highway 34 turns off towards Grace. Valley winds were strong and due s se. Forcing me to stay in the middle of the valley. And the constriction at the south end of the valley is not something you want to hang around in. I think if winds were more west it could be a ridge run at that point to soda springs. I'll post the track if you guys are interested. I think there is great potential to head all the way to Jackson on a good day! Cody
