Maid to Mormon

This makes twice this season that I've done this. The first time was just unbelievable and this time was even better because I got to fly most of it with my friend. After a nice smooth climb to near 14,000 ft Chris and I headed towards Mormon Lake from Apache Maid Look Out.

The views were incredible and the late day glides were 11 to 1 at 40 mph out of the south yet the thermal drift was to the west. Chris had a couple personal bests, highest ever and first flight over 10 miles. Did I mention the incredible views.

A near 20 mile flight that only took and hour not to mention we could have flown Mormon Lake until sunset
