Not disimilar to yesterday, though probably with a higher thermal quality without the early inversion.  Morning east lies, which already light, should lighten more.  Ideal day for another circuit flight to either of the Passes and back (or both).

What Happened

Excellent thermals topped with Cu at c3300m.  We went to the Pass, then Back towards Barco, then home.  Such light winds and reasonably smooth climbs and great visibility.

Once again Mick managed most distance in either direction, narrowly missing the full return due to shadow and a bit more east at the end of the day.  Karl also close, and Simon making the return home from nr Barco and the Villatoro Pass.
