Not as good as yesterday (see OLC), but we were still able to achieve
17,950' MSL. Surface winds were high, about 20 kts out of the west (down
the runway), but at release altitude, the wind was only about 10 kts. I
spent about 2 hours thermaling until I could locate some rotor to climb in
before getting into the smooth air.
A nice way to spend the day!
