Notes:
I finally found time to get up Grouse for the first time this season. It was a nice mellow flight enjoying the last thermals of the evening. The wind at launch was light west but there were enough cycles coming up to straighten it out on launch, even at 6:20pm. Launch was smooth and landing in the lower field was fine with almost no wind at 7:00.
