Weekend at McClure

Great weekend at McClure...

The Flying Canuck and I headed east to McClure for some nice, strong September flying condtions...

Thermaling up from launch...

View over the back toward Coulterville...

Wing tip view of the LZ, Lake McClure, and 132 heading back to Modesto...

Wing tip shot of Horseshoe just prior to heading out there...

McClure cleanses my soul and resets the dial of life so to speak. It was good to hang with the locals, the Canuck, and Bay Area pilots (Eric, Mike, Vikram, Wally, Brian, Scott, and Phil)...This was the first thermal flying with the new T2C and it flew very well. I'm officially happy with the purchase after this weekend.

Saturday ~ 1 hour, 50 minutes
Sunday ~ 30 minutes
