Notes:
Coming up straight and super sweet at launch. Got high on the way to the cliffs, jumped back and connected with nice thermals on peak behind launch. Cold up high (shorts&t-shirt!). Tried for Crown but chickened out with no thermals on the way so topped up on ridge again then big glide to W Van and LZ.
