Early bird gets the.....sunshine

Postby Leeside » Sun Dec 16, 2012 8:35 am

Out of the 150 pilots that showed up on Sat those who got off early had the most luck as the high clouds sure did mellow things out. Some made at least Padero if not farther. 4200' locally was the tops for me. Here's a photo of Bob A and Jon B. Damn cold day also. Too bad Aaron was home with the sniffles or else this posting would have been wayyy more entertaining to read.

:D pretty fun while it lasted - too bad it got dark, actually hit 4700 and found 1100'/min up before the lights went out - Way to go Brian! who shot the pass to Ojai despite the impending high clouds moving in, he made it to White Ledge before it darkened.
The sky is calling.
