Today with a challenging wind direction and a lot of no mans land to fly over I eeeaaakked out an amazing 15 mile flight. I got the low save at Meriam and worked back up to 9300 and headed northwest over a cunk of land that is not easy to travel through even when on the ground. BJ somehow found his way through the maze of juniper trees and hit the pavement just in time to save me from a Sunset Crater, Wapatki National Park ranger. She had quite a few questions for me yet I knew I was out of the park and answered them all correctly. It felt wonderful to go XC after a long rest.
