Hat Creek Rim 2016

  The flying year at the rim was led off by Glenn (Rosie) and Typo. They both had soaring flights late in the day landing in a soaked LZ1 at the Blue Balls fly in, in January.

February 12th with the promise of a west wind Roger and Sonny met out at the rim and managed to luck out . Launching around 3.00pm in light looking overcast conditions we did not expect to climb out in the light friendly thermals. Sonny topped out around 2 grand over. I topped out around 1200 over. I know from experience it is hard to catch Sonny. We were treated to an amazing sunset while retrieving the vehicle. Let us hope the season continues to be friendly.
