4300m on a Sunday.

Gliding out to valley, later to get 3000m another side

After a week of NE flow and trips towards Barco, Saturday gave us a decent day over the Pass towards Avila, though E most of the way, but climbs to above 3000m.  Indy went best with an arrival at Avila, and Soren, turning near Munogalindo, flew back to near the Pass.

Sunday, airport day for me, gave pilots tremendous conditions to around 4300m with decent Cu and raging convergence in the Avila Valley.  The new arrivals, and myself with a tandem made over 3000m on the evening flight, crossing the valley and finding it hard to get down before sunset.
